Cupig - Cupid+Pig

For Valentines Day, many people look for creative ways to give gifts to each other.
Instead of the common "I love you" heart, why not create a 3D origami cupig that
is not only unique, but adorable as well.

This 3D origami pig took about 2 hours total to make and quite a bit of brainwork,
but the result is pretty amazing and will be something that that special someone
will cherish forever.

Step 1: Materials

 -10 pieces of pink paper, if you're going to make a completely pink cupig. Mine includes some blue,
just for contrast. If you want yours exactly like mine, you'll need 2 pieces of blue paper and 8 pieces of pink. 

Keep in mind that every pig is unique, so you could totally go all out and make a rainbow cupig, a cupig
made out of newspapers, of whatever scraps of paper you have nearby.

-scissors
-tape
-small black bit of paper (for the eyes)
-two white notecards (a cupig can't fly without wings!)
