Spider and a Ladybug on a Flower Stem Coloring Page

A smiling spider, a spotted ladybug and a daisy share one open page, with wide shapes and plenty of white space between them.

Two tall stems grow up from a line of grass tufts at the bottom of the page. The left stem carries a daisy with eight rounded petals around an open circular middle. The right stem has no flower. A ladybug perches on the top of it instead, with six round spots on its shell, a separate head and two short antennae.

The spider hangs in the air to the left of both stems. It has a round body, a small smiling face and eight thin legs, four to a side. There is no thread above it and no shadow below it, so it floats rather than hangs. Children rarely notice. Adults always do.

Three leaves branch off the stems at different heights, which gives the page some green beyond the two long stalks.

Areas are large and widely spaced, with plenty of white paper between the three subjects. The ladybug's spots are the only small shapes on the sheet.

Red and black for the ladybug plus one bold color for the spider is the obvious plan. Leaving the daisy white and filling only its middle makes the flower read as a daisy rather than a generic bloom.
