I think this is the first Marriage Proposal puzzle I've made in which the girl proposes to the guy!

As it happened (from my Journal archives)

Thursday 7:20pm - Finally some real work! Pretty long day. Worked on improving the image contrast for the #782 Bar Mitzvah puzzle took a while before I was completely satisfied, also tweaked the image a bit, printed it, looks good. Designed a heart shaped border for #783 Marriage Proposal, also did work on the image so it would print nicely, printed it, looks good. Prepared the image for #784 and printed two copies as I will be doing paper treatment experimentation.

Friday 5:40pm - It is so good to feel better! A little lingering chest congestion, other than that I feel fine at last. The sun was back out today, warming my shop into the 70's, a nice day for cutting puzzles.

Today I focused on getting #782 and #783 done.

This morning I design two word pieces for the Marriage Proposal puzzle and laid out the positions for three figurals: two hearts and an "xXx" piece. After the Bar Mitzvah puzzle was cut, I cut the Marriage Proposal puzzle, it also looks excellent. The Marriage Proposal puzzle is one of very few, or perhaps the only one, of a woman proposing to the guy, so I want to create a page for this puzzle.
