Card Swap Cards/Birthday Card/Flower Card

I was making 30 card swap cards, 10 for one swap and 20 for another. I decided to make 20 for myself because I liked them much. One needed to be made with some type of flower on it, and the other had to be a Happy Birthday card, so I combined the two themes and did an assembly line. Doing an assembly line to make a bunch of the same cards makes it go so much faster.

List of supplies 

• White card stock 
• Paper trimmer and small pair of scissors 
• bone folder
• Stampin' Pads- Pacific Point and Gray Granite
• Wink Of Stella
• StampinUp Cheerful Daisies Photopolymer Stamp Set and Dies
• Acrylic blocks- various sizes
• Diamond Press Marquise die-cutting tool
• Old washcloth, one wet and one dry
• Old Teflon sheet to protect my surface while stamping (from baking dept)
• Scrapbook.com Double-sided Foam Adhesive Shapes- round 

1. I gather all my supplies and prioritize the order in which I do things.
2. I usually stamp all my images first to give them time for the ink to dry. 
3. Die-cut or fussy-cut all my images. Put all like images in separate piles.
4. Cut the card bases to size A2. 8 1/2 x 11 inches cut in half. For this card, I cut it in half on the long side (11"). 
5. Fold each piece in half.
6. Stamp the smaller flower randomly. I start in the middle and work outwards. Stamp some off the page. Make sure you are protecting your surface underneath.
7. I used round pop-up foam dots from Scrapbook.com on both sides of the vellum and then placed the stamped flower on top of it.
8. I put one large flower in the corner and two smaller flowers on either side.
9. I placed the sentiment on the bottom in between the stamped images that had foam adhesive underneath..
