WT91 - Flock around the Clock
Today's challenge is to find Ways to Use Flocking. Once very popular, this item has kind of faded out of sight, but there seems to be a revival of warm fuzzy textures in clothing and in scrapbooking so let's pull it out and make it new again. Lately I've seen flocked designer paper and fuzzy rubons in my local scrapbooking store so let's see what you can do to bring it back to stamping! Thanks to Trudee for the title of this challenge. 
I know this is a product that not everyone has...sorry if you don't. Next week is sure to be an easy one! If anyone has any substitute ideas, sources for buying flocking or any tips....PLEASE let us know.
Examples of flocking...
Magic and Wonder by rae123 Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
A Soft and Silent Snow by myself (please note....this is from last months DD gallery and you will only be able to see this one if you are a fan club member.) Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
Please remember to put WT91 in your keywords section and post a link back to this thread. Happy stamping....and keep flocking around the clock this week so that we have lots of new ideas!!!
Have a fabulous day!

Woo hoo! I have flocking! And I have never used the stuff! OK, thank you Julia!
But I have to meet a friend and have errands and I haven't even showered yet, so hopefully, I can get to it tonight!
Have a great day Everyone, and don't get mauled at the Malls! :-D

Just a thought for a substitute....I have seen some beautiful patterned paper that is flocked. I might pick up a sheet of that.

My tip! When you open your flocking container...make sure you have an extra something for storage because you are NEVER going to get it all back in! LOL |

Well, I used to have some of this, but I'm not sure if it's still around. Could I use velveteen paper instead?

Well, this is something I don't have, either. I will watch to see all the beautiful things everyone creates and maybe catch a missed challenge or two! |

No materials here either, and no store close by. So, no more excuses - on to some baking and gift wrapping. But I will be checking to see what everyone else is creating.

No flocking here either. In fact, I never heard of it. Since Michael's & Hobby Lobby are 50 miles away, and the fact that I was just there a couple days ago, don't think I'll run back up to get any. Will just have to see what everyone else comes up with. Guess I'll wrap presents instead.
Goooooooooooo Jeane. Could do cheers with you, but can't jump that high any more.

Is flocking sold on the scrapbook/card making aisle at Michael's? Is it like in a package? Or is it sold with material like fleece?
Thanks!

SU used to sell flocking. It's a powder that is sort of fuzzy. Applied like you would glitter. Guess I got rid of mine, so unless I can think up a substitute, I'll just look at everyone else's beauties.

I am kicking myself this morning.......I got a box of odds and ends crafting stuff this summer from a friend and it in was yellow flocking with a stamp that had a momma duck and 3 little baby ducks in a row!! I kept most of the stuff in the box and passed on the rest including the yellow flocking and duck stamp!! DOH!!!!!

I have flocking at my house, but it is over 2000 miles away, so I can't play. My daughter did a Christmas card a couple of years ago and used flocking and dazzling diamonds in a shaker card. It really looked like snow shaking around in there. Was it ever cute! Wendy's card She got tons of comments on it from the recipients, and even gained a customer because of it. Her dh's husband's grandfather thought it was a game and kept trying to get all the flocking on the tree. lol too funny! __________________ ~Karen ~

Well if i ran up to mom's and borrowed her flocking, I could play! Even have a card in mind but that would mean dragging the kids out and really i have tons to do today. Might have to put the challenge on a back burner.

I bought this stuff and was so excited to use it, but it just sits with the rest of my crafting stuff. I think that I already know what I might do....

Oh, I have like 4 containers of flock here, white, red, yellow, and brown, I did some cute things with it before, like for Valentines day I flocked a red heart, looked too cute. I don't think I have anything in my gallery with flock, so will have to see if I can work on this. Now to go put away all my new stamp stuff..OH MY!
