Default Flocking - Glue and/or Tutorial

I'm having trouble getting my Dootlebug flock to stick. Not much luck finding tutorials on the subject. Anyone know of any? Also, what type of glue to you use for that technique? Thanks for any help!

quicky glue pen or zig glue pen...when the glue is blue. When the glue is clear then it becomes repositional. Glue pads don't work that well. Very similar to glitter...add your glue...add your flock...tap off the excess...let it dry.

I find also if I put a scrap piece of paper over it and press the flock into the glue, it sticks better. Just make sure you have total coverage with your flocking powder tho, or your paper will stick to the glue...

Sticky embossing powder works great for flocking too.

I like to use the adhesive sheets for my flocking. I die-cut a shape and then rub the flock into the adhesive. I find it works better on a dry adhesive vs. a wet adhesive.
