Well, I was on the phone and running a nestie die through the CB and put the scallop circle nestie cutting side down on the C plate....now it is stuck. What can I do to unstick without harming the nestie?

Hi Diane Sorry to hear about your Nestie!! Did you try bending the plate and peeling up the Nestie? They are pretty tough, let me know how it goes!
Well, I have done this and I was able tp pry mine up out of the plate with my fingernails. It scared me, but I was successful and did NOT harm the nestie. Have you tried this? If this doesn't work, well, I'm not sure what you should do. Hopefully someone else will respond! Good luck!
I did that once by accident and pulled it out with my fingers, too. I was cutting cardstock, which I THINK is really all they recommend for the nesties.
I tried the nestie again (holding my breath that it wasn't ruined) and it worked just fine. I have not had a problem with that one again. BUT, you be sure that I am very careful when I put down the nesties ever since! LOL! Whew!
I've successfully used the tip of my exacto knife before. I would think anything thin that you can slide between the nestie and the plate would work.
My nesties sometimes stick to the B plate. A tip I read about is to dust it with your embossing buddy before hand. I tried it, and it worked - no more sticking nestie!

Yep...pretty much yank it out by pulling each side a little at a time.
I did this...same deal...on the phone...only it was my Revolution...now there is a nice scalloped circle embedded perfectly in the center of the platform...I call it decoration. And the nestie still cuts fine. They are tough little things!
