Chuckie Tool

 Hello everyone.  I've been seeing a lot of people using the chuckie tool and finally got around to go investigating.  After watching a few videos on YouTube, I decided to create my own.







It was very simple to make. I used Glitter glue, that I use on my Christmas ornaments, and poured a generous amount of it into the lid of a Yankee Candle jar lid.   Then I used the Martha Steward fine glitter, in turquoise, my favourite colour since it's the colour of the ocean, and poured it into the lid.  After swirling it around and ensuring that there was an even coating, I shook out the excess.

Next I used the Silhouette to cut out 6 circles of 120 lb turquoise cardstock and adhered them to each other.  I  cut out a circle out of  the self adhesive thick felt that I gotten from Home Depot.  Once cut, I adhered it to the cardstock stack. 

To make sure that my glue would stick properly and securely, I used fine sandpaper and sanded the glass edge of the lid.  Then I applied superglue and adhered it to the cardstock/felt layers.  I placed a weighted coaster on it and let it sit all afternoon.  And voila, my own chuckie tool!   No more CPR stamping for me 😀

I'm not quite sure why it's called a chuckie tool.  Maybe because you can chuck it at whomever tries to bother you during your crafty time???? 😀😂

Till next time,
crafty hugs

  2. Beautiful, Lena! I love all the sparkle! I think Chuckie was the guy who made the first one (someone's brother, I think), but I like your description better! Question: Do you like it, and does it help with getting a better impression? Curious minds want to know...

  3. Every day is a school day... having left the stamping ranks long ago, this is the first time I've come across the tool. That said, I can see how it would be useful for any type of stamping, particularly a platform. I think I used mine once before I sold all my stamps lol xoxo
