 | Valley fold paper from corner to corner, making a triangle. |
|
 |
| Valley fold the triangle from corner to corner, making a smaller
triangle. |
|
 |
| Unfold everything -- you'll have a square of paper with an X
crease. |
|
 |
| Valley fold the bottom edge up to the top. |
|
 |
| Valley fold the left edge over to the right. |
|
 |
| Unfold everything -- you'll have a square of paper with an astrix crease.
To make this a bit easier, flip your paper over and refold
everything so your folds crease both ways. |

(I know, we've done this before *grin*) |

|
 |
| Repeat the process on the other side |
|
 |
|
|
 |
| When you look at it from the front it looks like a diamond with a
crease in the center. The opening should be at the top of the
project. |
|
 |
| Valley fold the top layer of paper down. |
|
 |
| Flip over. |
|
 |
| Valley fold the top layer of paper down. |
|
|
| Valley fold the two points at an angle so they form little
triangles who's edges match the edge of the previous fold |
|
 |
| Valley fold the tips of the triangle down. |
|
 |
| Valley fold the side points of the heart inward. |
|
 |
| Optional: apply a bit of glue or tape to the last 4 folds
(the 2 tips and 2 points) -- strictly speaking, this isn't allowed
in origami, but it will make your project sturdy enough to slip
candy into your pocket. |
|
 |
| Flip your heart over and pull open the little pocket in the front
if you would like to slip in a note, stick of gum or small candy!
