The ribbon represents the girl's blue gingham-looking dress. The contents in the jar represent the red of the suitcase in the picture.
The flowers are actually from the Friendship Jar fillers set, I just decided to cut them short and use them outside the jar :)
I chose this sentiment because I was actually giving the recipient of this card a jar of homemade peach salsa and homemade spiced peach jam to accompany it, so I thought the sentiment worked perfectly :)
I did not have the exact pattern, or ink color of the inside of the suitcase, but I thought that this half and half pattern matched pretty well, so I went with it. The blue strip also represents the girl's dress, the white strip the table cloth, and the green cardstock, the grass.
I'm really proud of how this card turned out, and the recipient loved it when she opened it :)
Very, very sweet Jessica! Great inspiration from the photo and perfect to go along with the gift!
