Convey Love with Lots of Hearts ♡

I discovered a new type of love letter that has been trending on TikTok overseas ♡ It's a message card where hearts flip open ♩

Check out this video＊

When you pull the paper below, the hearts flip over, creating a pop-up book effect ♡

This well-known trick is often used in surprise boxes, but having it as a message card is something unique and new＊

How to Make a Heart Message Card ♡

① Cut origami paper or colored paper into heart shapes. (This is where you'll write the message ♡)

② On a long paper strip the same width as the hearts, mark the height of the heart at one end and draw lines 1cm apart from there.

③ Fold along the lines, and make the first fold at the top line.

④ Starting from the bottom, attach the hearts according to the lines. Make sure to only glue the top 1cm of the hearts＊

⑤ Attach a paper strip below the hearts like a belt.

⑥ Finish by making the end point like an arrow and marking it ♩

It's popular to place a special message like "I love you♡" in the hidden part that gets pulled out at the beginning＊
