Corners Fold With Heart Verse 5x7 Card

 

Simple yet intriguing card for friendship, 

thinking of you, get well, Valentine’s Day or birthday 

features corners that strategically fold back to reveal 

“background” where a thoughtful verse appears. 

Choose a delightful two-sided print 

(or cut the extra front panel to use two coordinates 

instead), assemble on the solid color card base, 

then add accent layered heart over the fold corner.

A print & cut verse panel can be used to send 

sentiment “you are on my mind today so I thought 

I’d send a heart your way”, as well as the doily print 

to use as accent heart base shape. 

If you prefer not to use print & cut technique, 

stamp or hand pen your own verse on 

the revealed wedge area, and cut 

the scalloped heart instead.  

Card measures approx. 5x7 fully assembled and folded.

ASSEMBLY: 1. Identify and cut the shapes:

A 5x7 side fold card base

B front accent panel with fold back corners

C optional front panel overlay for

one-sided front panel (B)

D print & cut front panel underlay with

verse

E & F heart accent with print & cut doily base

2. Prepare the front panel with fold-back corners

by bending along the two diagonal perforation lines.

3. For the sample card which has one-sided print only,

the front accent overlay is positioned and attach along

the left, top & bottom edges, with diagonal edges tucked

into the corner folds, and attached in place.

4. Position the front panel assembly over the print & cut

verse underlay panel, with corresponding straight

edges aligned as much as possible, and attached.

5. Position and attach the heart accent over the print

& cut doily base.

6. Position the heart assembly over the front angle

"point" where fold-back corners converse, angle

as desired, and make sure that the left edges do not

extend beyond front panel left edge, and attach.

7. Position and attach front panel assembly over

folded front portion of card base, with narrow offset

margin all around.

Here is the completed card.
