You Need: A deck of cards, glue or clear adhesive tape, clear flexible plastic strip, scissors.
How It's Done: Prepare your gimmicked cards as follows. Secure plastic strip to back of card as shown in video.
Clear flexible plastic can sometimes be found as part of the packaging of new shirts, used to support the collar. Otherwise there are many other sources of packaging where it should be able to be obtained.
The reason for trimming it so that it extends out from each end of the card is so that the thumb base and fingers can easily grip it. This makes the trick a whole lot easier.
Pressing lightly on each end of the strip will cause it to arch and raise the playing card.
Tips: Practice this trick in front of a mirror to perfect your angles so that the plastic strip is hidden from the spectator as the card is rising.
