Smiling Elf Sitting With a Big Candy Cane

A cheerful little elf sits on the ground with his legs crossed, hugging a large candy cane against his body. He wears a floppy pointed hat with a round jingle bell at the tip, and his big pointed ears stick out on both sides. His eyes look upward, his mouth is open in a wide grin with the tongue showing, and a tuft of hair sticks out from under the hat. Striped stockings cover his legs, and he has little curled shoes on his feet. The candy cane has curved stripes that make nice sections to fill in. Try alternating red and green on the stockings and the candy cane so they match, then use a gold or silver crayon for the bell. This free printable also works well for practicing careful coloring inside narrow stripes.
