  Wow, what a great idea. And you know what? you don't need a tool at all. you can fold using your hands only...

  Reverse engineered it for you gizmo.
  
  Tool:
  something to score card with, so as to damage one side of card but not go all the way through. I used a small philips head screwdriver, but I imagine you could use an empty ballpoint pen, or a jumbo paperclip
  
  Supplies:
  2 or 3 business cars to practice on
  1 set in-ear headphones
  
  1. measure business card width
  2. score backside of card from top to bottom at width/2 with tool. my test card was 87mm long so I scored at about 43.5mm
  3. score about 65% of the card at width/4 starting at the middle and go up and down. I scored about 22mm in from the ends and since my test business card was 19mm tall, I scored about 13mm in the middle of the card, leaving about 3mm at the top and the bottom unscored.
  4. score from ends of lines made in step 3 to the corners and also from the same ends, to the point where the line from step 2 reached the end of the business card.
  5. fold the back of the card together on center score.
  6. with both hands squeeze from end of card to the ends of the lines make in step 3, while pushing slightly on edge of card and center fold made in step 5 to crease line made in step 3. Repeat for other side.
  7. starting with connector squeezed between index finger and squeezed fold from step 6, wrap around business card holding tightly and pulling on cord to keep business card in shape. Continue to wrap until earbuds are all that remain.
  8. squeeze open end of card to give space to push in earbuds.
  9. show off to friends, charge them money to repeat, telling them it's a complex 14 step process, filled with precision measurement and engineering.
  
  Enjoy profits.
