Just Us Girls #671 - Photo or Moodboard Challenge

 The challenge at Just Us Girls this week is hosted by Elizabeth and she has chosen this amazing moodboard.  I absolutely love the lemons!

I was in the Amalfi Coast in Italy last April, and the lemons were abundant!  Everywhere you looked you saw lemon trees and lemon everything as far as souvenirs were concerned.  I of course came home with some (and I wanted to include them in my photo and forgot!).
Anyway, my card uses the Lemons and Blueberries set from Pink Fresh.  I started by adhering the coordinating washi tape onto some white cardstock.  The die then cut out all the pieces perfectly.  I only used the wreath and one of the lemon bouquets on my card.  I actually cut the wreath in half to make it bigger which allowed me to adhere the white sentiment strip across it.  I adhered the lemon bouquet on it as well.  The yellow gingham pattern paper was adhered to the base then I adhered the wreath and sentiment strip.  I added yellow crystals as well. 

You can see more from the JUGs design team and our March guest on the JUGs blog.

I love everything about this card, especially with the details you gave on how to use PF washi and cardstock. I had no idea. This lemon wreath is gorgeous and your idea to cut it in half to make it larger was so clever. I love the lemons you added with the sentiment too!

Lisa, a darling generous friend gifted me with this washi and WHY didn't I think to use it?? How beautiful it is with your lovely yellow gingham!
Beautiful card!

Washi tape was a fabulous idea! Splitting it was your second-best idea...LOL Awesome card!

That washi wreath is gorgeous, Lisa, and I love it on the pale gingham background.

I am loving that awesome lemon and blueberry wreath and so cool that it is washi tape! Beautiful design with that subtle yellow gingham background.

WO! Talk about a gorgeous wreath! I had no idea lemons and blueberries, combined, could be this stunning. Real life wreath like this would make my front door very happy!
