Wow! I am so excited!
Today's post features the new release Ikat.
Oh my goodness, this is the coolest set.
Here's my first card using the first set to make it's August debut, Ikat.
I used one of the pattern builders to create a background for my card. I used Avery Elle Ultra Smooth Pure White cardstock and the flower images are from Avery Elle's Blossoms & Blooms and Pixie grosgrain ribbon. The pretty scripted sentiment is from Avery Elle but you'll see more from that set later this release week. :)
Now for card 2.
I wanted to do something a little more graphic for my next Ikat card, as I really wanted to showcase another one the really cool Ikat patterns!
Hopefully you can see the ombre effect here as I have stamped another one of pattern builders from Ikat in 2 different colors and added the next darker color with some Avery Elle Raspberry grosgrain ribbon. Just like in the last card, I used the Avery Elle Ultra Smooth Pure White cardstock. Again, the sentiment is also from Avery Elle, but you'll see that later on in release week. :)

Both cards are fabulous, Heather. Love the background on the first card a lot!
Love your cards today Heather! The bright flowers look awesome with the gray ikat:) I love how that ikat pattern can make you focus on the colored pattern or the negative space!
Hope you have a great Friday and weekend!
Beautiful!!
I love how you used the ikat subtly in the background and made those flowers really pop!
