Well, the retired list is out and I knew I would miss some stuff, but WOW! I am going to lose a lot of favorites. Luckily my favorite dinos and their dies are staying, but the DSP, enamel shapes, and some of the colors that go with them are on the way out. In addition to those, the pigment sprinkles which are SO FUN to play with and pair with the dinos are headed out too.
I made this card a while back, but I love how vibrant it is and it uses a TON of my favorite products that are now are last-chance products. I figured it is the perfect way to show how awesome these things are in case you want to get them before they're gone!

Steps to make this card:
1. Cut an 8.5" x 11" piece of Basic Black card-stock so that it is 11" 4.25"
2. Fold in half
3. Stamp dinosaur with Granny Apple Green Classic Stampin' Pad
4. Cut four pieces of Whisper White card-stock to 4" x 4" for the letter panels
5. Using the Layering Alphabet Dies, cut out the m-i-t-e
6. Then using the Dino Dies, cut the dinosaur you stamped earlier and on the same scrap piece of Whisper White, cut out a speech bubble from the die in the Garage Gears Dies
7. On the letter panels with m & t, use the VersaMark Pad to stamp whichever patterns from the Dino Days Stamp Set that you want
8. Cover them in the Shimmer White Embossing Powder and then use the heat tool to emboss them
9. Next repeat the process with i & e, but use the Shimmer Black Embossing Powder
10. Now choose which color of Pigment Sprinkle you want for each panel
11. Panel by panel, lightly tap the Pigment Sprinkles above it and then spritz it with water (if it gets too wet, you can use the Heat Tool to dry them)
12. Color the dinosaur that you cut out using the Wink of Stella Glitter Brush
13. Stamp the "You're" from the sentiment from the Dino Days stamp set using the Memento Pad on the speech bubble
14. Using the Wink of Stella Glitter Brush again, paint the bubble with extra Pigment Sprinkles from the scrap paper
15. Trim the speech bubble to the size that you want
16. Using the Layering Alphabet Dies again, cut out another m-i-t-e from the Old Olive foil sheets
17. Take the prettiest of your 4 letter panels (hopefully they're all the way dry by now) and trim off about an inch of it
18. Using the Snail Adhesive, attach the piece you trimmed to the card base
19. Now add each panel in the order of the letters
20. Using Mini Glue Dots, attach the letters of Old Olive foil behind the letters on the panels to give them shimmery shadows
21. Make sure all of the panels are secure and add extra Snail Adhesive if necessary
22. Using Stampin' Dimensionals, pop up the dinosaur and the speech bubble
