This small packet trick combines several color changes. You start by showing five blank cards. Showing them again one of the blank cards has changed into a king with a blue back. You table this king. This process continues until you have all four kings with blue backs on the table and one blank card in the hand. The remaining blank card changes to one with a red back. Suddenly all five cards have red backs, and as the climax, you fan the five cards face-up and you now hold a royal flush.

An unprecedented effect of semi-automatic card magic, on the theme of Any Card At Any Number, in which the irrational dread for Number 13 is the protagonist.

An all-new virtually self-working card magic trick in which the number 13 plays the leading role in an "Any Card At Any Number" effect: a spectator freely chooses which of the four Kings to eliminate from the deck. Then, from a dozen other cards at random, two will be chosen, whose sum of values will incredibly determine the number 13. A card of the same suit as the King chosen at the beginning will then be 'generated' and, magically...

The magician displays a special deck made of double-blank cards. He has written a different word on each side of every card – only words that he can draw. After he turns away, the spectator removes a portion of the deck and eliminates all but one card. He remembers the word he is seeing and inserts the card in the middle of the deck. The magician faces the spectator again. He grabs a business card and a pencil while asking the spectator to concentrate on his word. When the magician is done drawing, the spectator reveals his thought-of-word, let's say it is "rabbit". The magician shows his...

Using a small packet of cards, a spectator fairly creates a playing card which was predicted by the magician.

A packet of playing cards is on display. On one side: A mix of every value (from 2 to King) and every suit. On the other side: A mix of red and blue backs. The spectator is asked to create a random card. First, he selects which back color represents the suit and which one represents the value. Following the magician's instructions, he mixes the cards up and cuts them as many times as he wants. Then, he deals the cards on the table in six pairs. Finally, he picks one pair with a red...

You start with 5 blank cards - blank on both sides. A magic word and one of the blank cards has turned into a regular card. Progressively, each blank card assumes a differently colored back until you can show a fan with all five cards showing backs.

"A very nice mentalism routine. And the method is devilish!" - Tony Bianco

"After I was taught the method for this, I immediately smiled. It is super clever, you won't be disappointed." - Brian Draven

"Many of you know the Unnamed Magician by now. But I've had the privilege of knowing him for a long time now. Any time he creates a new routine and sends it to me, I always make time that very day just so I can see it. This routine is no different." - Tommaso Guglielmi

To mark my 1st year anniversary at Lybrary, I am (in collaboration with someone else) releasing something very special, which, if you like...

Card tricks with big holes in some cards is one of Peter Pellikaan's unique themes. This is another visual effect using cards with holes.

You show four regular playing cards and a coin. When you count the cards again one card suddenly has a huge hole cut out of its center. You place this card aside and count the remaining three cards. Another card has a hole. You do this until all four cards have turned into cards with big holes cut from their center.

When you pick up these four cards with holes, they magically become whole (pun intended) again. They are restored without any holes just like...

You show four Eight of Diamonds. On one you draw a large X and you ask the spectator to follow it. You turn the cards face-down, and after some mixing, you table the cards one after each other face-down. When you turn the cards face-up they have all changed to aces. The eights including the one with the cross on it have vanished.

Selected card at selected number.

This is a very clean "selected card at selected number" effect. The spectator selects a card, shuffles to lose the card, selects a number, and the card is miraculously found at the number. A performance video can be seen below.

Imagine:

The magician introduces a deck, spreads it face up to display that all the cards are different and in no particular order, and then hands it to the spectator. He invites them to cut off about a third of the deck and to look at the bottom card of the cut-off portion as their selection. The magician then asks them to thoroughly...

A quick and easy packet trick for those with analytical minds. An envelope containing a prediction is introduced, along with seven cards, each displaying a different number. You explain that there is something written behind each card, but that will be revealed later.

The cards are then arranged in two rows - one with four cards and the other with three. The participant is asked to eliminate one of the rows, and you turn over the cards in that row, revealing that you had predicted which row they would choose.

Next, the participant pairs one card from the remaining row with any other...

A stunning color change of blank cards into printed cards.

You show four cards which are blank on both sides. Suddenly an ace of spades appears. When you spread the four cards all formerly blank cards are now aces. Turning over the fan shows four different backs. The blank cards have changed to non-blank front and back.

Three cards are put face down on the table. Put three blank cards over the first card and the blank cards all change into the same card they were put on. Repeat this with the other two cards. The cards always magically change their faces. At the end, the faces change again and the entire deck is blank.

You show four cards with blue dots and another four cards with red dots. Then you stick a blue dot over a red dot card and a red dot over a blue dot card. After 5 seconds the dot color of the remaining three cards in each packet has changed, too.

You continue to mix the cards but they always separate into packs of the same color, like oil and water separate. In the final sequence, you remove the two dots you stuck on in the first phase and the colors change again magically.

You show two packets of four cards each. One has red dots on the faces and red backs. The other one has blue dots on the faces and blue backs. You repeatedly interleave them but they always separate.

You show two packs of four blank cards each. You stick a blue dot on the top card of one pile and suddenly all these four cards have blue dots. You do the same with the red dot and the other pile. Then you exchange the top cards of these two piles. The remaining cards follow their leaders because the pack that had blue dots before has now the red dots and vice versa. When you take off a red dot and a blue dot from one card each, the remaining cards return to blank cards.

You show four cards with red dots and four cards with yellow dots. When you touch the pack of red dots with the pack of yellow dots one of the red dot cards changes to a yellow dot card.

When you show the pack of yellow cards on the table they now all have blue dots.
