Axolotl Tea Party Coloring Page

About this page

An axolotl hosts a tiny tea party on top of a giant lily pad. It sits at the back of the pad and tips a round teapot to pour, holding the handle in one hand. The teapot has a scalloped lid with a ball knob and a leaf pattern on its side, and the same leaf pattern decorates the two teacups waiting at the front of the pad. The lily pad is wide and flat with a notch at the front and thin veins spreading from the center. The axolotl's face is joyful, with a big smile and shiny eyes, and its feathery gills spread on both sides. Its tail curls up on the left. Matching patterns on the pot and cups make it easy to color a tea set, and the lily pad gives a large area for green tones and vein details.
