Sunflower Checker Round Card

 

Layered sunflower is framed by circle checker
accent which can be cut from regular card stock

paper or vinyl, with centering guide marks for

flower and checker circle. 

Card back has perforated cross line near top

to bend to create a hinged easel style card

that can stand. 

Card measures approx. 5.25" in diameter.

A companion square envelope is also

available to enclose for giving or sending.

ASSEMBLY: 1. Identify and cut the shapes:

A card front base

B card back base with near-top perforation line

and short flat cut along bottom edge for standing.

C-F sunflower petals and center circles

G checker sections (model uses black vinyl)

2. If using adhesive vinyl, cut, weed, then use clear

transfer adhesive sheet to prepare the checker unit

for placement. Then position over the front card panel

with center positioning guide over card panel center punch.

If using cardstock cut out shapes, position the outer ring

of the checker unit over the card front panel,

centered with even edge offset margin all around, 

and attach. Then position and attach the inner ring 

with alternating checker unit in correct positioning.

3. Layer the sunflower petal shapes with centers

aligned, then rotated so that top petals fall exactly

between bottom layer petals.

Use a pin to help center the shapes then glue together

where they overlap.

4. Position and attach center circle over front of

petals assembly, with centers aligned.

5. Position and attach within checker accent frame,

with center of flower and card aligned (use pin if needed).

6. Prepare card back panel by bending forward

on cross-perforation line. 

7. Apply glue to the backside above the perf line,

then position at backside top of card front assembly,

align cut edge, then glue in place to create

a self-standing, hinged closure card.

NOTE that the center bottom of card back panel

has been shaped with a flat edge to assist standing.
