How To Make This 3D Heart Flower Card
Step 1: Fold the Card Base
Take your white cardstock and fold it in half to create your greeting card base. You can round the corners or trim into a heart shape if desired!
Step 2: Make the 3D Heart Petal
Cut out multiple heart shapes from your colored cardstock. Fold each heart in half vertically. Then, glue one half of a heart to the half of another to begin layering them. Continue until you’ve glued 4–5 hearts together to form a pop-up, 3D flower shape. Set aside to dry for a moment.
Step 3: Build the Flower
Glue the green jumbo popsicle stick vertically onto the front of the card—this will be your flower stem. Then, glue your 3D heart flower at the top of the stick.
Step 4: Add the Leaves
Cut out two leaf shapes from green cardstock. Lightly fold each leaf down the middle to give it a 3D effect. Glue them to either side of the stem.
Step 5: Write Your Message
Open the card and write a sweet note inside. You can keep it simple with a “You make my heart bloom!” or something personal from your child.
Crafty Tips:
- Let kids choose their favorite colors for the petals—it doesn’t have to be red or pink!
- For younger kids, pre-cut the hearts and leaves so they can focus on assembling.
- Want to fancy it up? Add a bow at the base of the flower or some sparkly stickers!
