Easy Heart Explosion Cards Step By Step written instructions

Begin by folding in half one direction.

Opening again and folding in half in the other direction.

Your paper should now have a cross folded across it. And it should now be a “smaller square”.

Now you need to place your heart template over your square – align the bottom of the heart, with the central corner of the square and cut your shape.

When you unfold your paper, it should look like a four leaved clover.

Next you need to bring the bottom right corner over to the bottom left. Whilst keeping your index finger on the centre of the squrae… and bring down middle left to the bottom middle point. Creating a triangle that is tucked in.

Open up your sheet (make sure your creases are neat) and cut down half way on your top middle fold.

Now use your second heart template to cut out 3 read hearts per quarter (you will need 12 in total).

One of the red hearts will need to be folded in half and glued on the side that has the diagonal fold. Glue the rest of the red hearts in place.

Now glue your top left corner square onto your top right corner square.

You have created your first pop up fold.

Make 3 more of these.

Then glue 3 sides together and keep the final flap unglued/ open. Make sure that when you place each of the 4 sections on top of each other, the “folded in heart” is always on the bottom and aligned.

We added a final decorative heart onto the front “cover” of our pop up heart card/ explosion card.
