Butterfly Color Palette: What colors should I use?

For a vibrant and enchanting butterfly coloring page, consider using a palette featuring bright shades like royal blue for the wings, deep purple for the patterns, and sunny yellow to accentuate the antennae. Adding touches of soft pink can enhance the overall aesthetic, giving a graceful balance to the design. A rich emerald green for the background would provide a stunning contrast that makes the butterfly pop.
