Sugar Skull with Roses, Hearts and Daisy Eyes

A front-facing sugar skull fills the page, outlined in a thick border. Each eye socket holds a large daisy with rounded petals, surrounded by rings of small circles and dots. Between the eyes sits a heart, with a small leafy bud and a fan of feathery leaves rising above it onto the forehead. A rose sits in each top corner, and little spade shapes and swirling vines curl around the temples and cheeks. The nose is drawn as two heart-shaped openings, and a row of upper and lower teeth sits in the middle of the jaw. Curly flourishes and a flower decorate the chin. The mix of big open petals and tiny dotted areas gives kids plenty of room to choose. Try coloring each daisy a different bright shade, then repeat those colors in the dot circles around the eyes so the two sides feel connected. It prints easily for a Día de Muertos craft day or a quiet afternoon.
