And that is because you didn't use an over-sized piece of paper. Use something like kraft or parcel paper which is cheap and giant.

If it's not expensive and you don't care if you waste it--might as well try. Right?
EDIT: I should add, how large is it?

Alright, that's not bad. This one was out of 35cm:

So at least we know it is plausible to fold it from that size. You can try it, but really if you still can't do it, I suggest doing simpler CPs before your next attempt. Sometimes it's just the fact that you aren't there yet, and you just need to fold a few more things before you understand how to collapse a model.
