This month's INSPIRATION STATION features stamp and die sets from Hero Arts, "Autumn" (CL882) and "Autumn Frame Cuts" (D1156). You are going to be "wow'd" by the creative beauty that abounds. So, please be sure to stop into Art 'n Soul and check them all out in person . . . as you well know, photographs are never as good as the 'real' card!

Today's INSPIRATION STATION card comes from Marj who uses Magenta's Nuance watercolor dyes to make the stamped images really come alive!

Seth Apter is one of my very favorite mixed media artists. On his blog, he shows one of the many ways he uses dies in non-traditional ways to build depth and interest.
