Is it the same as flock?
You can find more information on Flower Soft (including pricing) here on our Product Review page:
http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/resources/products/flower_soft/
We have purchasing links on the right side of the page, and many fellow stampers have responded with additional locations, too. I found mine at my local scrapbook store.
Is it the same as flock?
Well, same concept as flock. It's just. . . fluffier. You'll notice that it's a thicker product. When you touch it - it's more springy than soft in the package, almost sponge-y. When applied, it does give a nice, soft look to your flowers and images.
Is it messy?
Like glitter and flock and embossing powder, it does have the potential to be a little messy, yep. Just work over some scrap paper, and follow the suggestions in the Product Focus and tutorials (work over scrap paper and put the product in a bigger container when fluffing for SURE!), and you'll be fine. Also, it may go without saying, but turn the fan OFF!
