Layered Petal Lace Mandala Coloring Page

About this page

A small flower sits in the center of this densely layered lace mandala. Long oval petals fan out from the middle, each one carrying a smaller dotted or lined shape. Scalloped bands and short leaf cells build around those petals, followed by a wide geometric ring of pointed panels. The final edge is a lace-like chain of small diamond points and round dot details, giving the whole circle a finely finished rim. Start with two related colors in the long center petals, keeping their inner dotted shapes pale. Use a cool blue or teal in the scalloped bands, then reserve a deeper violet for the pointed geometric panels. The small leaf cells can repeat two soft greens. This page is a satisfying choice for a long, quiet coloring session or a detailed floral circle for a handmade journal cover.
