Check out this simple, free birthday card which opens up to a $20 bill (or whatever bill of your choosing) in the shape of a heart!
I love her tutorial on how to fold your own money in the shape of a heart – particularly because of a special memory I have when I was just out of college in my first job. I was running a store sampling station on my own for our company, and saw a group of Spanish-speaking teens. So, I whipped out my high-school Spanish, and they smiled so brightly!
About 20 minutes later, one of the kids came back to give me a heart-shaped dollar bill they had quickly (and immaculately) folded into this exact heart origami pattern she’s teaching you. I still have mine, to this day.
