This weeks Make it Monday featured using a glue pad to easily add glitter, shine and flocking to stamped images using a glue pad. Finally a reason to break open the package and give it a go. The pad was surprisingly easy to use, but I ran into some difficulty when trying to glue on to an acrylic surface (my first attempt). I ran into issues with static--so mental note to self, prep the surface first. Sond attempt I created a cute little Christmas tag using flock on the snowflake which I think really makes it realistic. Hope you enjoy my project.

What a great tag with the flocking. I have to admit, I have a flocked snowflake in my trash--could not get it to turn out--so I am particularly impressed with yours.
I think it turned out great Tracey! I like the flocking on the snowflake, so soft and pretty :)
Great job using your snowflake with flocking.
I love how soft the flocking makes the snowflake look and you cut out the middle of the limitless layers, that is a great idea. Your tag is beautiful!
I love how you paired flocking with a snowflake, it looks great!
Love your snowflake tag, Tracey! I think it looks beautiful with the white flocking.
Beautiful flocking! I love how it shows up on the kraft card stock.
Its beautiful Tracy , I love the flocking! Perfect snowflake tag.
So beautiful, Tracey! You did a great job with the flocking. I am not getting such good results with my glue pad so I have not entered this challenge. Catch you on the next one!
This is so pretty! Looks like real snow! Gorgeous color combination, I should try that was well, love it!!!
Hugs, Wendy
This is gorgeous, Tracey! I love the kraft tag. ;)
Hi Tracey, thank you for visiting my blog today. I love your tag - I have not tried this technique. It's beautiful and beautifully done.
To answer your question...I use Close To My Heart inks. I used holiday red, blush, olive, citrus leaf, garden green, hydrangea, amethyst, crystal blue, ocean, and grey flannel. Thanks for asking. I usually try to list my ingredients, but I've been lazy. Hope you had a wonderful day!!
