It's Thursday, and time for the Create With Connie and Mary weekly challenge! This week it is a color challenge featuring three fabulous colors: Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight and Night of Navy. What a great combination for summer cards and were creating fun!
I stamped the flower using Melon Mambo onto Melon Mambo cardstock, quickly added Clear Embossing Powder and heat embossed them. I had made some clay flowers using SU's new Simply Pressed Clay a few days ago and left them white, so I pulled out my AquaPainter and Daffodil reinker to quickly color them then set them aside to dry.
The background flowers were stamped with Daffodil Delight first and then the lattice from Summer Silhouettes in Night of Navy. The greeting is from Banner Greetings, a set available to anyone who has a Stampin' Up! party or has an order of $150. or more.
The light-as-a-feather clay flower centers were adhered with Glue Dots. So easy. And no additional postage for over 1 oz. weight either!
You are invited to join in the fun color challenge over at Create with Connie and Mary! Just make a card using these colors and SU products, post it to your blog or a public location online then link it to Create with Connie and Mary! That's it! Just good stampin' fun and creativity!

Love your card! The Melon Mambo flowers are beautiful!
This is gorgeous! Love the design and those clay flowers!
So pretty with the layers of flowers - stamped, punched, and clay! Looks just like flowers on a trellis.
What a sweet card! I love the layout and the colours.

Love the way you gave your flowers "life" by putting the clay centers in there and curling the petals. Great card! Love it!
I love how life-like the flowers are with the curling of the leaves and the clay centers. They look like they are really growning on that "trelis"!
This is such a pretty card Margaret. I so like how you have the flowers stamped in the background and then the 3D flowers overlapping. Very creative!
Beautiful use of new products, I love the clay roses and also the colors you added.
