I am so excited. After much research I had to lay down what I was looking to do and knew it was mainly desiring the layered look or having a "trinket" look like the oval punch does for me to stamp on . BUT I hated how boring the oval looked and wanted something different.. nesties are my answer! I love the embossing done on it, it adds so much depth to the cards I have see and I know this is what I am looking for.
So I ventured to Ritz Camera and picked up a Wizard and 3 sets 20% off! No shipping or tax.. what more can you ask for? I am thrilled and can't wait to see my new toy delivered. And FWIW I spent $115 in total. Not too shabby for all of that. I don't have any die cutting machines at the moment so the Wizard will hopefully be the solution to fulfill my needs.

Yeah for you!!! I can sort of relate to how you feel...I just got a Cuttlebug for my first die cutting machine, you can also use the Nestie's in it. My DH bought it for me 2 weeks ago when it was on sale at Michael's for 50% off. A bit of a downer though...I have been really sick ever since, and haven't even had it out of the box yet. I did get out the instruction manual and read it, that is as far as I got.
A great big THANK YOU for letting me know about Ritz Camera's. I went there after your post and purchased 3 sets of the Nestie's to go with my new Cuttlebug. I just love how the Nestie's look on the cards that the people make on this site and other sites that I have seen. I am so hyped up to get well and try them out. I feel like a kid in a candy store, don't know what to do first. LOL
I am pretty new here and don't have a gallery yet, but I hope to be posting cards soon. I'll show you some of my new creations if you'll show me some of yours. ha, ha.
Have a great time with your new toys when they arrive. I'll be thinking about you and hoping that I get well soon so that I can play along too.

Patricia, you are too cute! Of course I'll be happy to show you my creations with the nesties. I am excited as you are. I was contemplating the cuttlebug but the deal on the Wizard and reviews made me think twice. I really don't have an interest in die cut letters, objects and what not, ya know? I rather stamp the letters.. just more my style. So having the Wizard and getting a bunch of nesties will be my "thang".
Everyone says the ship fast so I am hoping that is true! How fast is fast? LOL
I just ordered my first "babies" too. ((Only I used ebay and a coupon with $8 off and free shipping)). I've waited sooooooo long bc I wanted to save the money up from some of my stamp-camp prep money and feel guilt-free. Now my very own NESTIES are coming!!! I feel your excitement too!!!!

We're just a happy, excited little bunch today, aren't we? I feel for you, hope you enjoy yours as much as I know I will mine. Happy Stamping and have a wonderful weekend.
I think we should all make something once we get our toys and be sure to share it on the gallery!
Sounds like a fantastic idea to me, but I have a problem...I am frantically searching for my USB connection for my camera to my computer, can't seem to find it anywhere. I know that I had it right after Christmas, now where could the darned thing have gone? Will keep on searching, if worst comes to worst will have to order another one.
