This Artist Trading Card is for my ATC Technique Album. For fancy folds that I've never made before, I always have to follow (stumble through) the directions on a full-sized card first. After I have the idea of the mechanism that makes them work, I can usually size it down for an ATC. If I get stuck, DH with the mind of an engineer and an affinity for directions can figure it out. I'm proud to say I figured this one out on my own! Yes, I will make this one again.
Here's a little tip (especially for me): Make another one right away while it is fresh in your mind. Each one will be easier.

LOL on the tip. Yep, I've done things once or twice and then left it so long that it's just like starting over. And I agree that it takes at least one trial run, usually, to understand and get the feel of it. Though this one I feel must be pretty forgiving, as I did a mash-up of metric and the given measurements, LOL. This little one is cute, and the flip works well on the ATC with the scale of the image and circle.
