All the theropod Dinosaurs have their Wizard Staffs. Now it’s time to carve the pumpkin! A Dinosaur theme of course. Three hatching eggs for this year – a Sauropod, Triceratops & T-Rex will make the cut. I’m using the Pumpkin Masters tools I picked up at Michael’s 3 or is it 4 years ago now? They come with templates to help you make various Halloween traditional Pumpkins. But who wouldn’t want a Dinosaur-lantern? The Crayon is great sketching your plan. I use the scrapping tool to cut some of the details before making the major cuts that open up the pumpkin.
The pumpkin is stronger this way and you avoid breaking pieces off vs. trying to handle the details later. Then I open the top clean out the inside and finish will the major cuts that allow for that Halloween Glow. A few of the Prehistoric Pals pose with me and our newest creation. I would love to see Your Dinosaur Creations.
I try a few shots with my Dinosaur Wizard costume and We’re ready for the Prehistoric “Trick or Treaters”!
Stay Tuned for Malcolm the Mailosaur’s Finish!
