Well the problems is this: Now you make up a trick by ur self. You have a structure in head. You get the things and start to get to work. You get halfway and then u see that it is not duable to countine, maybe caus it is near impossible to do it in front of spectator etc...., So u have come up with a good trick, but u cant fullfill the trick, like in my case, changing blank cards to real cards, started with four blanks (keep in remind I use special assorted deck) and I just ended up with 2 changes of 4 cards. So I have 2 real cards and still 2 blanks. Now it will not go just using 2 cards, bcaus, well u probaly know. And I thought: How can I make this "clean" and fair trick? Seems so strange just to stop with 2 cards out of 4...... Well just in generell, what is the best way to deal this with?

First of all why are changing blank cards to printed cards?

There are a few effects that use this principal, so dont knock it. I myself perform an effect using this principal, where you have a blank and the selected card becomes imprinted on it.

heres one:

And to answer the question, sorry i cant really help. I have had this problem in small ways, but i have over come them each time. It will come to you, just think, mess around, dont really think about the effect and it will just come (it works for me many times.)

Well my point was more likely the basic problem here, just used this card trick as an example.
The issue was this: U have a trick in the mind. You get a mental structure and practice it, but stop halfway, bcaus u cant "end" the trick in a nice/fair/good way. But u have still createted a miracle with the first phase, but to end the trick with 100% satisfaction...... Seems not be possible, except if u have real magic powers.....
