Proud Parents Eric and Ariel Admire Their Baby Girl

A man and a woman stand close together and look down at a baby the woman cradles in her arms. The man wears a military-style jacket with a high collar, round buttons, a wide belt, and a fringed shoulder epaulette. He reaches out one gloved hand toward the baby. The woman has short swept hair and a big bow at the back, and she wears a dress with puffy layered sleeves. The baby wears a small bow, smiles, and waves one tiny hand. Behind them is a large diamond-patterned lattice window with a curtain at the right edge. The lattice makes a good spot for a pattern challenge: color the diamonds in alternating shades, then use soft pastels for the baby and brighter colors for the jacket buttons and epaulette. The large open shapes also suit younger kids with chunky crayons.
