Another method of doing something similar to a flutter tongue works equally well with blow or draw, but can only be done with a pucker.
Play a note with a pucker, then flick your tongue from side to side over the opening. Gets a sort of mandolin-tremolo repeated note. Not a raucous or as free-flapping as the tongue-tip-on-the-roof-of-the-mouth flutter, but useful. Toots likes to use this for "special' passages where he plays softly, as a contrast to whatever else he might have been doing.
