Credit cards are recognizable items by just about everyone, although they are slowly morphing into the conspiracies that are slowly becoming reality… added chips, tap payments, body embedded chips, and soon biometric implants, and biometric recognition…

But enough about reality. Let’s talk magic. Below you will see magic using credit cards. The basic routine is a wild card type of effect with added features like printing, card reveals, predictions, and more. I re-edited the trailer so you can see a full performance of the main routine: HERE

Below you will also find an easy rising card routine you will like.

►Credit Swipe:

One of the most common items in your wallet becomes a visual feast with color changes, morphing ink, transformations, and more! Blank credit cards print before your eyes in modular routines that can get big reactions.

The basic routine: You introduce a handful of blank credit card stock. Nothing is printed on either side. You demonstrate that by touching one of the blank cards to a credit card, it instantly duplicates. After printing a few cards, you start to morph the ink on them! Make the numbers fall, duplicate the gold ship, or even cause the images to smear. As a killer kicker ending, you place one of the printed cards in the spectator’s hands, and it takes on the image of the palm of their hand!

You are taught many other sequences and routines using the gaffed credit cards that are supplied.

David Solomon has sold tons of his hand-made rising card gimmicks. I have a bunch of them, but the internal gimmick is made of elastic and eventually wears out. I thought the best way to keep this great gimmick in use is to show you how to make your own. They are very easy to make, all you need are two playing cards, a piece of elastic, some tape, and an inexpensive download.

►Double Surprise Rising Card:

This was a best-selling gimmicked card routine that David sold at lectures. The gimmicks were all hand-made using two regular cards and a piece of elastic.

This video tutorial will teach you how to make your own gimmicks and to perform the routine using one or two selected cards. Meir Yedid will teach how to make the gimmick and a basic routine while David Solomon will teach his original routine with two selections and as a finale you will see Jimmy Nuzzo perform the routine which was David’s favorite.

The basic routine is to have a card selected, signed and returned to the deck. The card then rises out of the deck for around half its length and can be given out as a souvenir. The deck used is an ordinary examinable deck.

►LATEST MY MAGIC RELEASE:

►Printing On Demand:

This is one of David Solomon’s favorite packet tricks. It full of visual transformations and multiple climaxes.

Themed around how everything is now being printed on demand… even playing cards. You place a blank Bicycle card to one side.

You then show four Jokers with blank backs. One by one you print four different colorful backs on them. After the four backs are printed, you magically cause all the Joker faces to vanish, leaving you with four blank cards with different backs. As a surprise ending, the blank card you placed aside at the beginning now has all four Jokers.

►BACK IN STOCK:

I really like the Rubik solve below. I even worked out a routine using it as the finale to a routine that uses a shell. Unfortunately, I never had a chance to try it, since adding a new routine to the stage act means I have to get rid of one of my favorites. Anyway… just got a few more in stock.

►RD Insta Lite:

This is perhaps the best, easiest, and most visual Rubik Cube solve you will ever do.

The basic effect starts with a mixed-up cube that can be shown on all sides. You give it a few twists to make it seem more impossible to solve. And then… it visually solves itself.

The solved cube can be shown on all six sides and even handed out for examination.

The visual solve looks like trick photography. It is so visual that you will swear the stickers themselves are changing color!
