Well, I'd have to say that June 2015 has been my very most favorite Papertrey Ink release yet :). I have just been having so much fun with the party-themed supplies, the beautiful florals, camping/summer sets, and the amazing and so unique Stacked Sentiments set. Let's get started with my remaining projects for this release.
My first card uses the Good Times, Scripted, and Caution: Another Year Older stamp sets along with the new Shaker Shapes: Balloon and Balloon Strings dies. The inside of my shaker balloon was die cut from the new Hooray paper and filled with sequins from the Shakers & Sprinkles Sequins collection as well as a few assorted sequins.
Across the bottom of my card and on the inside as well, I used the new Caution: Another Year Older border set. My sentiment is from the new Scripted stamp set and is sooooo gorgeous...gonna be a favorite, I can already tell.
Inside my card OI stamped with more images from the Good Times stamp set and added a sentiment from the Tucked In: Birthday stamp set.
I love finishing the inside of my cards and love the look of the design continuing from the front through to the inside...a fun, finished look, plus you get more mileage out of your favorite stamps.
This card was created using the new Stacked Sentiments stamp set and I am sooooo hooked on it. I have stamped and die cut all of the other stacked words from this set and have them sitting by, ready to create with.
I love all of the tiny detailed stamps that are included and think this has to be one of the most unique and creative sets yet....just playful and inspiring!
Crazy for those berries, and the little image I used to create my border....see, hooked I tell you :).
Next up is the new Bloomers stamp set and it is incredible!
I paired it with the Scripted set again and also the Keep it Simple: Praying for You stamp set.
I mixed Harvest Gold, Sweet Blush, Melon Berry, Berry Sorbet, and Smokey Shadow for my flowers and can't wait to try more combinations.
Lastly, the fun, new Petite Places: Happy Camper stamp set. So tiny and so playful!
I had to try a purple camp trailer, and added a bit of sparkle and shine to my mountain tops and banner. I used the new Petite Places: Happy Camper dies as well as the new Scene It: Mountain View dies.
And, speaking of camping...that's where I'm heading. Off to the woods with a youth group...I will love camping, I will love camping :).

Love all of your cards, but the balloon card is really so special - gorgeous!

Fantastic cards, Melissa! I'm absolutely in LOVE with the balloon on your first card--the streamers,flower sequins and use of the bitty stars paper really made it so special! Love your purple camper and sparkly mountain tops, too! Hope you have a fun camping trip!

Nothing ordinary here. Each one is a gift, a piece of art. Love these, Melissa!

Hi Melissa,
OH GIRL, YOU SHOULD SEE ME NOW. I am dancing feverishly to Ricky Martin's Latin POP Songs,dancing the Salsa or Merengue or any other Latin dance, which are joyous and happy and liberating!!!
And all those things you do to me with your creations! You make me feel giddy and happy to be alive and remembering my youth long forgotten!
To finish this comment I am going to duplicate what I said to Betsy & Dawn... Along with cloning you I would like to have half of my mind inhabited by you and the other half by Betsy,,, and your creations ALWAYS leave me with a "When Harry Met Sally" Moment!!! I tell you girl I crack myself up sometimes (my mom does not pay attention to my jokes), I hope you do too!
Cariños,
María Alba

Terrific cards! LOVE all the details and great embellishments on the first card. The design, colors, stamping on the "many glessings" card is very nice, too. All are terrific! :)

Melissa, fabulous! Really what else can I say that I've not said before! In case I've not said it, you are without a doubt my all time favorite card maker, period!!!

Ah, you never fail to amaze! So gorgeous, but the Enjoy the Journey card was one of the reasons I DID purchase the Happy Camper set. THANKS for the great inspiration!
