TO MAKE A CARD WITH THIS TEMPLATE

1.  Score cardstock A down the center and fold giving you a 6" x 6" card.  Cut papers B, C, D and E to size.  Glue paper E onto the front of your card as indicated in the layout.  Trim edges for evenness.
2.  Using a circle template and craft knife OR circle cutter if you have one, cut four circles across the top of the card (be sure the card is not folded in half for this) as indicated in the layout.

3.  Using a corner rounder, round each corner on cardstock C.  Glue inside the card on the back right under the circles you have just cut.
4.  With the clear rubber stamp set of your choice (make sure that the stamped image fits inside the circles you cut), stamp four images onto cardstock.  Cut each image out and then with the card closed center an imagel in each circle window you cut in step 2.  Secure with 3-d foam.
5.  Use your clear hobby rubber stamps for any additional elements you desire on the face of you card. Glue these just below the circle windows.  Be sure to leave enough room for your saying at the bottom.
6.  Choose your saying and stamp it onto D in black ink.  Ink the edges of B and D if desired.  Glue into place as indicated in the layout.  Ink the outer edges of the front of your card.
7. Add a saying or thought inside your card or leave it blank for a finished project!
