The IMPOSSIBLE Card Fold Made EASY!

In my recent issue (October) of Papercraft Inspirations there is a tutorial on how to make the IMPOSSIBLE card fold.  From what I read this card was based off an old playing-card trick....it has kind of an illusioin or trick of the eye.

The trick for me was figuring it out since I'm not good at metric measurements.  But after studying the pictures I figured out my own way to make it (measurements are definitely not the same) and came up with a simple "formula" that ANYONE could use no matter what size card they want to make or if they want to make it square or rectangle.  And yes it is the exact same IMPOSSIBLE card fold.  And because I love you all so much I made a video tutorial that you can watch....just CLICK HERE 

So I will give you hint.....the card is one piece of cardstock and the center piece pops up all by itself :)

Here is what I have made....so far....hee hee hee
