I like this technique and I think it makes for a better finished project. Getting the curves just right at the top of the heart box is a little tricky, but I’ve made it easier by providing an extra curved guide piece that you can use to train the sides into the curves. If you don’t want to use vellum on top, you could just use the same color of cardstock that you use for the box bottom. I designed the cut-outs on the box so that you’d see the vellum on the top and the bottom box on the sides. I added some complimentary cutwork to either side of the box, too. This paper heart box uses the same cutwork heart seen on my DIY leather planner because I just loved that design. What’s been fun to see is that many crafty people leave the light out, and instead using it as a 3D heart box! Such creativity!! I love this heart box and have also created a paper heart lamp to go along with this box. So I created a special 3D paper heart box.
I have many heart-shaped projects on my blog, including my heart-shaped handwarmers, map pillow, and origami winged heart. And hearts are always a great way to show someone that you love them. Sure, they’re popular at Valentine’s Day, but I love to use and see them year-round. One of the things I love about hearts is how versatile they are. Learn how to make a beautiful 3D paper heart box for that special gift or just to show someone just how much you love them! Easy Paper Craft Ideas & Projects Expand.
