adding Bitmaps to various frames in movieClip in as3

I have a movieClip and I want attach to this movieClip bitmaps. I want attach each bitmap to different frame of movieClip. I have tried something like this, but it is not working. It is for memory game I am creating. 

for(var i : int = 0; i < cardList.length; i++){
    var helpVar : int = cardList[i].pictureOfCard;
    cardList[i].gotoAndStop(cardList[i].pictureOfCard+2);
    var bitmap : Bitmap = new Bitmap(bitMapArray[helpVar].bitmapData.clone());
    cardList[i].addChild(bitmap);
    cardList[i].gotoAndStop(1);
}

After some time I discover that what I was trying to achieve is probably not possible in as3. The way I solved my problem is that everytime i gotoAndStop to frame I need have there bitmap I addChild(bitmap) and everytime I gotoAndStop other frame where there should not be bitmap I removeChild(bitmap) from movieClip. (So it is very similar aproach to makeing bitmap visible and invisible)

You could simply load all Bitmaps and only show the one, that should be visible right now. e.g. 

function ShowFrame(nr:int):void{
   for(i:int = 0; i<bitMapArray.length; i++){
      bitMapArray[i].visible = false;
   }
   bitMapArray[nr].visible = true
}

My AS3 skills are rusty, so this might need some syntax correction, but it works in theory.

var i :int = 0;
processNext();

function processNext():void
{
   cardList[i].addEventListener(Event.FRAME_CONSTRUCTED, onFrameConstructed );
   cardList[i].gotoAndStop(cardList[i].pictureOfCard+2);
}


function onFrameConstructed( e:Event ):void
{
    cardList[i].removeEventListener(Event.FRAME_CONSTRUCTED, onFrameConstructed );
    var helpVar : int = cardList[i].pictureOfCard;        
    var bitmap : Bitmap = new Bitmap(bitMapArray[helpVar].bitmapData.clone());
    cardList[i].addChild(bitmap); 

    if( i < cardList.length - 1 )
    {
       i++;
       processNext();
    {
    else
       trace("All done");

}
