How to align iconbuttons in card widget flutter?

I am having trouble issues aligning my icon buttons to the middle of the card. As you can see in the picture, the icon buttons are on top attached to the top of the card.

How do I make it meet at the half size of the card? Any suggestions? (I want the buttons to be located at the middle of the card)

Tried: I tried putting padding or wrap my Row widget with a center, but it doesn’t work.

 child: new Container(
            height: 150.0,
            width: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width,
            child: new Card(
              color: Colors.white,
              elevation: 8.0,

    Try below code and set mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center, to every Column widget. Refer layout and Align

    Container(
  height: 150.0,
  width: MediaQuery.of(context).size.width,
  child: Card(
    color: Colors.white,
    elevation: 8.0,
    child: Row(
      mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceEvenly,
      crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.center,
      children: [
        Column(
          mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
          children: [
            IconButton(
                onPressed: () {},
                icon: Icon(Icons.sticky_note_2),
                iconSize: 35,
                color: Colors.lightBlue),
            Text(
              "Notes",
              style: TextStyle(
                color: Colors.black,
                fontSize: 15,
              ),
            ),
          ],
        ),
        Column(
          mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
          children: [
            IconButton(
              onPressed: () {},
              icon: Icon(Icons.quiz),
              iconSize: 35,
            ),
            Text(
              "Quizzes",
              style: TextStyle(
                color: Colors.black,
                fontSize: 15,

    What is the issue?

    You are using center alignment in the row but not inside the column. Now column is taking the height of entire row but the children of the column is not aligned center.

    Solution:

    Try adding mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center in each of your column

    Present Code:

    Row
mainAxisAlignment:MainAxisAlignment.center
|_Column
|_Column
|_Column

    Required Code:

    Row
mainAxisAlignment:MainAxisAlignment.center
|_Column
  mainAxisAlignment:MainAxisAlignment.center 👈 Add these to every column
|_Column
  mainAxisAlignment:MainAxisAlignment.center
|_Column
  mainAxisAlignment:MainAxisAlignment.center

    Replace your "Row" widget with the following code, this will solve your issue.

    Solution : Give your Column center alignment

    mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center

          child: Row(
            mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.spaceEvenly,
            crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.center,
            children: [
              Column(
                mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
                children: [
                  IconButton(
                      onPressed: () {},
                      icon: const Icon(Icons.sticky_note_2),

                      color: Colors.lightBlue),
