Happy Tuesday Tutorial Day!
I’m going to show you guys (Since they’re now available) How I created two different cards using the new PINK Nesting Dies!
In this Video:
- Watch the Cuttle Bug in action – basic how to use it
- How to properly Sandwich your cutting plates
- Cheating with shims – what can you use for spacers if you don’t have the right shim
- Paper Layerz
- Nesting Dies
- Sparkle Lightz
- See the Purple Cow Trim It in action (SO great!)
- Megan Elizabeth Embellishment Combo Pack
- I’m Just Sayin’ Megan Elizabeth Stamp Set
ENJOY THE MOMENTS!

I loved the video. I just got the grand calibur and I hope to be able to cut more instead of a few at a time. Nice blog . thanks from NJ
Very easy and cute. TFS.
Nice card and great tutorial.
If you use a C plate, you don’t need a shim!
Hey Maureen – Actually the C plate is just a LITTLE too thin still, so you do need a bit of a shim of some type. And then if you try to use a C plate with a Embossing folder its TOO thick. I really found the “Best Cuts” Came from adding a shim to the A Plate B Plate B Plate Sandwich. š Hope that helps š
Cute card. I love the rack behind you for displaying/storing papers. Where did you get it?
I got the Metal one from a Retail Supply store I found online (just a google search) š and the Wooden one on the left is from Michaels/Hobby Lobby š
OMGosh girl, such a beautiful card!! Thanks for showing me how easy…I gotta go get me some nesting dies ooo and some stamps. Can’t wait till your inks come out š
Cute card. I never use my cuttlebug for cutting, just use it for embossing
Super cute card! Oh, how I wish I had a Cuttlebug!
Megan, would you still have to use a shim if you used your “C” plate?
It actually does not work very well with the C plate. A shim is really the best thing. š
Thanks Crystal š
Enjoyed the video and love the card you made. TFS
Cute and fast card. Great tutorial. Quick question…If I don’t have any other cutting machines other than my various Cricuts, and would like to do the nesting dies, what machine would you suggest? I can only assume that my Expression won’t cut those dies, correct?
Megan, why is it that you always inspire me with all your great cards and tuts? They are so simple and easy to do and yet quite beautiful. I don’t have a Cuttle Bug but Sizzix Big Kick sitting in my closet for about 3 years unopened and now with this, I feel a need to open it and start creating (I can only wish to get my hands on some of that Paper Layerz of yours……I guess to dream is not a crime…lol!!). Take Care!
I just love this card – so simple and so beautiful – Great job – š
Love your cards !
Great job! I’m ordering these die cuts!!!!
Simple effective card with gorgeous girly colours – must check out the Purple Cow trimmer!
Love the colors you used on this card. The jewels really set off your design. I want these dies.
Love your tutorial! I also love the wall hanging idea! Great job and continue to enjoy the moments yourself!!
Hi Megan,
Thanks for the hint on using the embossing folder instead of a shim to cut with my cuttlebug. Gonna try next time!
Hugs,
Just a cute card I love it. Thanks for all you do.
Great price on the nesting dies. What a wonderful idea to frame your( loved) paper. We all have paper we hate to cut on. Wishing you the best on the launch of all your new products. Both cards came out nice. You make everything look so easy. I bought the Purple Cow Trimmer at AC Moore on sale for $12( awhile ago). I love it!
Had my first experience with Paper Layerz this week and Oh My, what a treat. Megan you have inspired me to get the dust off my Cuttlebug and now all need are the “pink” dies. I think you are great and love your videos.
EEEKKKKK did you say Canada? I can’t wait!!! š
