Faux Nestabilities!

[lindsaymay]

Hi there,
I igured out how to get the look of "nesties" with suff I already have! It's quick and easy, full tutorail on my blog. Here is what I made, the purple tag and circle are embossed like a nestie! I also have free scut files for the spiderweb mesh for you Cricut users!

Great idea! Thanks for sharing

I really appreciate your sharing this technique. I have the Cricut and with the cartridges can get the Nestabilities shapes in any size I need (especially in combination with the software), but couldn't figure out the best way to get the crease. I hate to keep buying all of these things for every new twist that comes along.

Although I've not been in the past, in today's economy I need to find ways to be more frugal.

I bet if you used your cricut to cut shapes out of stencil plastic you can make whatever graduated sizes you need! They are selling some to make emb. folders with so why not?
