Pattern Paper for Australian Card Bases

You are going to build your card from the back.
Take the square card base and glue it flat against the bottom of the card front, making sure the fold is at the top and it will sit about an inch from the top of the card base. It should open upwards.
Next apply glue to the tab on the voucher mechanism. Glue this at the top in the inch that we left at the top above the square card. Glue it flush to the edge of the cardstock.
Open the mechanism so you can work on the square card base. Now note we have not turned anything over we have just lift the voucher mechanism up.
Apply a thin layer of glue to each of the tabs on the slider guide and glue it to the bottom of the square card back. This means you can easily run cardstock thru the guider. Give this enough time to adhere before moving to the next part.
The hardest is sliding the voucher mechanism thru the guider. Good thing about it is that you only have to do this one time. It isn't really hard just fiddly.
Decorate as you wish.
There is a few ways to adhere the voucher. You can make slits using your cutter or there is some punches out there that make slits but I think simple temporary tape runner works really well.
Xpress-it in Australia has one i know. I actually saw it in Officeworks today.

Temporary Tape Runner - Aussie Peeps other companies sell it too. USA Also Tombow Liquid glue if you apply it and leave it for a while then apply your voucher becomes temporary. I just find tape runners easier but don't buy something if you have the tombow liquid... or can cos you are big people. :)
