Double Heart Fun Fold Card

If you love cards with a little “wow” factor, you’re going to adore this Double Heart Fun Fold Card! This design is interactive, sweet, and surprisingly easy to create—making it perfect for Valentine’s Day, anniversaries, weddings, or anytime you want to send a little extra love.

Double Heart Fun Fold Design

The double heart fun fold card features a unique interactive fold created with heart-shaped dies. Instead of using hearts just as embellishments, the dies become part of the structure of the card itself. The layered heart shapes are the fun fold section of the card.

You can use heart shapes for layering or as focal points on cards. However, for this design, the heart shapes take center stage as the main interactive part of the card. Best of all, this technique works with any large heart-shaped dies you already own, so you can easily adapt it to your supplies.

The other fun thing about this card design, is the simple closure mechanism. I like to turn different elements on the card into a functional mechanism to keep the card neatly closed. The fun fold hearts like to pop up on their own so I used the greeting for the card to create a simple closure. No bulky hardware or complicated steps—just an easy solution that compliments the heart theme and keeps the card secure for mailing or gifting. So be sure to watch the video for some tips on creating the closure.

Made with Love

The Double Heart Fun Fold cards I am sharing today feature a variety of products from the Made with Love Suite from Stampin’ Up! The coordinating colors, patterns, and sentiments make it easy to pull the entire card together. That said, you don’t need this specific suite to try this fun fold. Swap in your favorite patterned paper, stamps, and embellishments to make the design your own.

These card ideas definitely work well for Valentine’s Day. However, the design is also a great choice for any love-themed occasion such as anniversaries or weddings. It’s such a unique and simple way to send a little love to your friends and family. For more fun ways to heart shapes in card making, check out this 3D pop up heart design HERE.
