I had to wait until my latest delivery from SU came before I could tackle this challenge, as we don't officially get 'Pool Party' till September, but I love the colour. I also felt it was time for a bit of sewing a la Niki Estes, which I haven't done for quite some time and miss it.
I had a bit of trouble matching the Copics I have with Melon Mambo, but it actually looks better in the photo. There is some stamping on the pool party panel but hard to see.

What an intriguing and daring color combination! You have pulled it off to perfection--I'm loving those polka dots, the black stitching accents, and the round stamped medallion. Nice coloring, too!
