Cover with more wafers. Heat 1/3 cup of raspberry preserves in the microwave for 30 seconds. Brush over the tops of the vanilla wafers with a pastry brush or back of a spoon. Pour the remaining jello mixture over the top of preserves. Stand wafers around the edge of the dish. Chill over night. Prior to serving: Top with remaining cool whip and fresh fruit.

Place the cream in the same bowl of the electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment (no need to clean the bowl) and beat on high speed until the cream forms stiff peaks. Carefully fold the whipped cream into the lemon mixture. Fold in the lemon curd, and pour into a 7-inch-diameter, 3-inch-deep souffle dish. Decorate with sweetened whipped cream and lemon slices that have been cut into quarters. Chill and serve cold.
