Very nice! She'll love them, as said above!

Just a tip for pastels (although ti seems like you've already pretty much maastered them) is that to do large areas and to get colours to blend properly, scrape along the edge of the colour you want to use with a pair of scissors over the pice of paper, then rub in the powder with your fingers until you get the desired effect!

ahhhhhh good idea, ive just been either using the side of the pastel or drawing lines and blending them, but that can take a fair bit of rubbing lol.

I might do another one later, im addicted now lol
