Your entire body consists of a vast network of capillaries, veins and arteries with blood flowing through all of them. If any one of these is compressed (crossing legs, resting on the arm, etc.), it restricts the blood flow. When the compression is released (standing up, uncrossing legs, etc.) the blood begins to flow again. As the blood begins to flow, expansion takes place. This is the "tingly" feeling. When the blood as reached normal flow rate and the expansion is completed, the tingly feeling subsides.
Because you cut off the blood circulation to your leg that is why you get that tingly feeling when you get up and walk because the rush of the blood circulated again
