Cut a rectangle out of colored paper so that its length is exactly twice the width, and then bend it diagonally four times.

We fold one side of the rectangle towards the center with the letter X exactly along the folds. We do the same on the other side of the sheet. As a result, you should get two large triangles.

Having determined the center of the triangle, we roll each part to the top. We open each valve as shown in the photo, then bend one side of the resulting figure.

We turn the future heart over and bend the corners, after which we bend all the resulting valves on the front of the figure.

A voluminous heart made using the origami technique can be presented as a souvenir to your loved one for Valentine's Day, decorated with gift wrapping or used as a decorative element.
