Turn a paper heart into a cute DIY envelope in four easy steps.
Today’s paper craft is super fun and easy. I’m going to show you how to turn a paper heart into an envelope! It only takes a few minutes, but it’s a really clever way to unhook a love note to someone. Next time you need a souvenir tag or quick DIY paper envelope, try making one that’s heart shaped.
Instructions
Step 1: Grab a piece of colorful paper and cut out a big heart shape. I’m using a 12″x12″ piece of scrapbook paper, but a regular 8.5″x11″ piece of paper will work too. Your finished envelope will just be a bit smaller. Turn the heart upside down.
Step 2: Evenly fold the two outer edges of the heart in like this:
Step 3: Fold the curved marrow part up, like this:
Step 4: Fold the top tip of the envelop down, like this:
Now you can unfold the envelope and write a message inside the part-way square zone or cut a separate piece of paper slightly smaller than the folded up rectangle shape and slip it inside the heart envelope.
Isn’t that just so much fun?!
To review, here are the four steps:
Cute and easy! I love this idea for Valentine’s Day, but don’t you think love notes should be a year round thing? I do!
