You wouldn’t believe how long it took me clean up the glitter after I decorated this dinosaur toy so we could announce that Fotolab No.7 now has 35mm cameras available!

Is disco-saurus rex an appropriate name for this new dinosaur species? (Oh! Also, we have traditional 35mm film cameras at the lab. See you at Fotolab No.7 when you’re ready for fun!)

We created a dinosaur in the lab! It’s a para-sparkle-lophus! (This seems like the best way to announce we have 35mm cameras available at Fotolab No.7 in Vermillion, SD.]
