i have the scaloped circle ones - i bought them at hobby lobby while visiting my father in NC - i was able to use a coupon
i like them - i like that they emboss and cut
i use them in my cuttlebug - i also bought the rubber pad that is made by the same company as the nestabilities - it used for the embossing part.
if you are near a hobby lobby they carry them in the store - i dont think any of the stores around here (joanns, michaels or ac moore) have them

Nestibilities are made by spellbinders which makes the wizard die cut machine They are great and you can do sooo much with them. Check out the ideas on spellbinderspaperarts.com. I have had the wizard for about 5 years now and love it. There is so much you can do with it. From their site click on How-to then tips and tricks, then sandwich recipes for the wizard to see all the things that you can do with it (from cutting out aluminum to embossing clay). I haven't seen them in any of the chain stores, but a LSS by me has the dies and she orders any that I want if I don't want to order from the company. I have seen them on a lot of websites too.

OMG, I love, love, love them! I got some from www.cameraworld.com (20% off through February!), and they have some of them on Joann.com. We really need to get together. I've used them in the Cuttlebug and noticed that they cut fine, but the embossing isn't great, but it could be my silicon mat?

but it could be my silicon mat?

For the embossing with the spellbinders dies you need to use a soft rubbery type of mat,(after cutting) I use the one that came with the wizard and you can buy them separately, but maybe you can try some other type of materials. Then it works great to chalk the die cuts while the die is still in place after embossing.

I bought the wizard one, but I don't know if it works as well with the CuttleBug as it does with the Wizard. I may try it in my Big Shot.
