Lock your "Text" layer.
In your "Layers" choose either "Top Designs" to make things on top of the numbers/icons or "Bottom Designs" to make things under the numbers/icons.
In my example on the right, I have chosen to draw on the numbers so I am using the "Top Designs" layer.
You can either:
Make each card unique
Make each number unique (my example on the right)
Make each color unique
Remember you can hold down "Alt" and click and drag to duplicate designs.
You can:
Change the color of the card (Unlock your "Back of Cards" layer")
Add an image or draw and illustration (On the "Top Designs" or "Bottom Designs" layers")
Add text (Unlock your "Text" layer)
On the last artboard there are two blank wild cards.
If you want, you can make up some extra wild/action cards.
Go to "File" > "Save" to make sure to save your .aic file (if it is grayed out then it is already saved).

Once you submit on Canvas, ask Mrs. Hodges to print your cards.
Use the paper cutter and scissors to cut out your cards.
