ATC MIXUP GINKGO and Its Inspiration, My GINKGO 6" x 6" Stencil

ATC Mixup Swatton # 1 (9" x 12")

ATC Mixup Swatton # 2 (9" x 12")

My recently-released ATC Mixup Swatton# 1  and ATC Mixup Swatton #2 (each 9" x 12" and each containing 9 stencils, some with bonus masks) included a design titled Ginkgo.  You can see it above, in the middle row, far right.    Inspired by my original 6"X 6" Ginkgo stencil -- 

6"X 6" Ginkgo stencil 

-- yet, different in its size and in its composition, the ATC version has found its way into many of my recent art adventures....

Soon I'll be using my original 6"X 6" Ginkgo stencil with the ATC Ginkgo stencil.  It'll be fun to see their prints mingling in an art project!

Meanwhile, today's post finishes with my sharing a creative, clever way the 6" x 6" original was used by encaustic artist Linda Robertson.   

Click on Linda's name above to see this artwork ... and notice that she also used another two StencilGirl stencils -- Lizzie Mayne's Tribal Hand and Terri Stegmiller's Waves 6.
