Dinosaur Dig Birthday SVG

Dig for dinosaurs

Young dinosaur fans love the idea of digging one up, and this hexagon badge turns the party into a fossil site. The field is bright orange, like desert sand, scattered with small golden pebbles. Two white bones lie across it, a long one near the top and a short one below. Beside the short bone sits a big teal footprint with three pointed toes and a round heel pad, as if a dinosaur has just walked through.

DINO DIG runs across the white band at the top in chunky capitals, and a golden ribbon with green ends at the bottom reads PARTY.

Color layers

• Base and lines in navy: the hexagon backing and the outlines
• White in bone white: the top band and both bones
• Sunshine in sandy gold: the pebbles and the ribbon band
• Grass in fern green: the ribbon ends
• Orange in desert orange: the field
• Ocean in teal blue: the footprint
• Lettering in navy: DINO DIG and PARTY

Pieces and weeding

The solid file is 30 pieces with 11 cut-outs. The bones, the footprint and the pebbles are all loose pieces, so lift vinyl with transfer tape and glue paper down on a backing card. It passes our cut checks from about 5 inches wide.

Size guide

At 5 inches the pebbles are at their smallest. Below that, print and cut with Print Then Cut.

Running a fossil dig

A dino dig is one of the easiest party games: bury plastic bones in a sandbox and hand out brushes and spoons. The badge fits right in:

1. Invitations sent as “official dig permits.”
2. Paleontologist shirts with the badge on the front for the birthday child and the guests.
3. A sign for the dig site at the sandbox, cut large.
4. Fossil bags with the badge on the front, for the guests to carry home their finds.
5. A cake topper cut from card and taped to a food-safe skewer, so it never touches the cake; remove it before serving.

Different digs

For a jungle look, switch the orange field to green and the footprint to brown. A purple footprint on a yellow field is fun too. See changing SVG colors.

Pairs well with

The Digger Birthday badge for the digging, the Camping Birthday pennant for an expedition camp, and the main Happy Birthday collection for cards and banners.
