cp -r omitting large files

[citizenthom]

I want to back up a file system, but omit all files over 10M and preserve the file structure.
The closed I've managed to get is the command:
find . -size -10M -exec cp -d '{}' .~/CP_HERE/ ';'

This finds all the required files, but copies them all to a single folder.
Is there any was of doing this while preserving the file structure?
