Rose with butterfly Coloring Page

A butterfly that lands on a rose stays still for only a moment, wings open upward as if it were catching the sun, then snaps them shut before flying off to another flower. That pause is what this drawing captures: the flower holding its visitor while a breeze barely stirs the lightest petals along the edge. When coloring the two together, think of the butterfly as the spot where anyone looking at the page will land first, so it can wear a shade that stands apart from the rose instead of blending into it. The wings usually repeat the same pattern on each side, like a mirror, so it helps to work back and forth between one half and the other so they end up matching.
