Amazing Love

Happy Friday!
I hope your week has gone well! Since Valentine's Day is just around the corner, I thought I'd share a fun Valentine with you. The greeting & Love Maze images are wonderful all by themselves...but I can't resist putting a pink pig into the mix. Especially when it's Cupig! I colored him a little more pinky so his colors wouldn't clash w/ the very pinky reds I'd already used to color the other images. I'll admit...there was a lot of fussy cutting going on here, but I really liked having a black bg & it was the only way to have the lighter images show up.
After I die cut the black panel, I added all the fussy cut images. It's a toss up which was harder..the teeny tiny arrow or the teeny tiny hearts. The inside of the O was tough, too. Inside curves are always hard but a little trick I figured out. If you're going to attach it to black, just use a black marker around the inside (& outside edges) to cover any white that's showing & it will disguise any imperfections in the cutting. By the way..there is a way thru the Love maze. I found it pretty easily but when I drew it w/ a red pen, it wasn't very visible so I colored everything below the line. There may even be more than one way, but this is mine.
Here's a look at the inside & below it are the Copics I used.
Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a great weekend!

Wow Julie, that was a lot of fussy cutting! It looks awesome! I like how you matted everything on the black panel and that you did the maze. Great Valentine!
I bow to the Queen of fussy cutting!! What an incredible card Julie! Not only is your cutting amazing I LOVE how you colored the love maze and added the triple hearts under the greeting inside. You're aMAZEing!!
OMGosh Julie, I just LOVE this!! I definitely need a hug from you so that some of that creativity will rub off! I love the way you colored in part of the puzzle...so colorful and really makes the puzzle stand out! Love your Cupig and your die for the sentiment too and hanging hearts! It is just perfect!
What a fab idea to do the maze and color it so it had a pattern and looks even cooler. Wow - love it!!! Putting everything against the black bg and fussy cutting really makes everything pop. Some awesome creativity and ideas here, Julie. Great card. Hugz
