When I'd been playing with Coffee Cafè a while back, it occurred to me that I could use Lemon Zest as well and try some 'Step-It-Up' cards. Those are cards which start fairly basically, and progress with a little more added each time.
The basic card in this case began with Blueberry Bushel as the base, and Lemon-Lime Twist for the middle layer. The glass, straw and ice (from Coffee Cafè) mixed with lemons (stamped and punched) and a sentiment from Lemon Zest. I drew stripes on that straw, and in the next version it was die cut from striped paper.
Version 2 is a similar card, stepped up with a glass die cut from vellum, a little hessian ribbon and some clear droplet embellishments.
Version 3 has a second layer from Tropical Chic DSP, and a few punched leaves. A tab is placed behind the ribbons, and it includes the vellum die cut glass and droplet embellishments.
