🦖 Dinosaur Week Goes Extinct—with a Little Halloween Magic!

Celebrate Dinosaur Week with a fun Halloween shaker card featuring the Close to Extinction Stamp Set, creative Flash Card Surgery, and spooky interactive details from Pajama Crafter Stamps.

I’m closing out Dinosaur Week with one last dino-mite project—and this little guy from the Close To Extinction Stamp Set decided he was ready for Halloween! 🎃🦖

For this card, I did what I’m calling a little Flash Card Surgery! ✂️ I cut into two Halloween Flash Cards, using the skeleton/spiderweb design to create my circle shaker and borrowing the witch hat and “Make Your Own Magic” sentiment from another card.

I love finding ways to stretch products beyond their original design. A little cutting, mixing and matching turned these Flash Cards into something completely different—and gave my dinosaur the perfect spooky-season makeover!

🛍️ What I Used

  • Close To Extinction Stamp Set
  • Halloween Flash Cards
  • Dino Celebration 6×6 Paper Pack
  • Marshmallow Cardstock
  • SpinCycle Micro Rotators

🦖 Has This Dino Already Gone Extinct?

From Shells to Flowers

Who says seashells have to stay at the beach? In today’s card, I’m transforming shell images into beautiful flowers with a fun, unexpected twist using the SHARK-UTERIE stamp set from Pajama Crafter Stamps! Stop by for step-by-step details, close-up photos, and a creative technique that will have you looking at your stamps in a whole new way.

Sometimes the smallest stamp in a set becomes the biggest surprise!

When I was first designing this SHARKuterie Board stamp set from the July Pajama Crafter Stamps’ Release, I added this cute little shell, which is perfect for beach scenes. But after playing around with it, I discovered that stamping three shells together created the sweetest little flowers!

I loved this concept so much that I designed two completely different cards using the same shell flowers—proving that a single stamp can inspire so many creative possibilities.
