I don't have any oil pastels, so I had to use chalk pastels for Lydia's Masked Pastels challenge today. But I love the result and will do this all the time now. I will also need to go buy myself some oil pastels. I masked off the bottom of my card and stamped and colored the flowers. Then I used my finger to spread a light blue and seafoam color up the page. I love the pretty, soft background that it created. Thanks for the fun challenge, Lydia!

Jen, I LOVE this card and the sweet flowers, and what a great way to mask off. I need to try that. I have lots of chalks that I bought so many years ago at a quilt festival in Houston and should try this. Love the softness of it. Beautifully done and a perfect sympathy card! Makes me cry for Verve being gone in just a week. I'm so happy I have all my stamps and dies though (and bought some great deal). Hugs, sweet friend! xoxo
