Abstract
A craft tool for making an illustrated card has a body with a drive bar having a stamp, a cover and a stopper. The cover is mounted around the proximal end of the body and has a base having an elongated slot and a pipe cleaner slot. The elongated slot is formed in the top of the base. The pipe cleaner slot is formed in the bottom of the base perpendicular to the elongated slot, and allows the stamp to pass through the pipe cleaner slot and a bent pipe cleaner to be mounted completely inside. The stopper is attached to the base, has a flat bottom that can be positioned flush to the illustrated card and allows the bent pipe cleaner to be pushed into the illustrated card accurately.
Claims6
A craft tool for making an illustrated card comprising
- a body being a rod and having
- a distal end;
- a proximal end;
- a drive bar protruding from the proximal end and having an end and a stamp mounted perpendicularly on the end of the drive bar;
- a cover mounted around the proximal end of the body and the stamp and having
- a top opening;
- and
- a base formed below the top opening and having
- a top;
- a bottom;
- and
- an elongated slot defined longitudinally through the base, communicating with the top opening and mounted slidably around the drive bar;
- and
- a pipe cleaner slot defined longitudinally in the bottom of the base, perpendicularly intersecting and communicating with the elongated slot and mounted slidably around the stamp;
- a stopper corresponding to and being attached to the bottom of the base and having
- an upper surface;
- a bottom surface being flat;
- an exit hole being defined through the stopper, aligning with the pipe cleaner slot, being perpendicular to the elongated slot and allowing a bent pipe cleaner to pass through;
- and
- two limiting protrusions being formed on and protruding from the upper surface of the stopper and being mounted in the elongated slot to partially block up the elongated slot and forming a channel that communicates with the exit hole.
