Once blended, the background was spritzed with water from a Distress Sprayer, the masking tape removed, and allowed to air dry.
Another panel was trimmed to 4" x 5 1/4" and inked with Distress Oxide Inks in Bundled Sage, Peeled Paint, and Frayed Burlap, spritzed with water from a Distress Sprayer and set aside to air dry.

Words from the Mama Elephant Little Dino Agenda Stamps/Dies were stamped on three of the Mama Elephant Lift Flap Grid Creative Cuts Die flaps with clear embossing ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder.
The panel was adhered over the background and the images were glued in place as shown.
An additional sentiment from the Mama Elephant Me and My Dinosaur Stamps/Dies was stamped on Hero Hues Palm Cardstock with clear embossing ink and heat embossed with white embossing powder.

The little "Dinos" were so adorable and loved the coloring. That "flap" die is great and want it now. The signage is so cute, also. Loved your cards, as usual. This is a great reveal as have followed it every day.
