Nestabilities are NOT just for cardmaking!

Here is another trick I've done with my Nestabilities.  I wanted to use them to frame my heritage photos.  This presented two challenges. First, my 8 1/2 x 11 paper was too wide to go through my Big Shot machine. Second, I wanted to mount my photos so they could be removed without damage. 


As you can see, I decided to cut my cardstock so that it would be narrow enough to go through my machine.  Then, to mount the photos, I used transparent photo corners REVERSED on the BACK of the frame - in other words, the photo corners were placed onto the photo with the sticky part facing UP so they attached easily to the BACK of the frame.

Before mounting my photos, I embellished my frames by drawing around the holes cut by the Nestability with a gold pen.

I also used my Nestabilities to cut and emboss several layers to mat my title.
