How to do the Cheek To Cheek Card Trick

Show off your magic skills with a little preparation and an easy trick to execute.
You Will Need
* Two identical decks of cards
* Glue
* An audience
* Table

Step 1: Glue one deck face to face
Take one whole deck and glue each card face to face so you have half a deck of double-backed cards.

Step 2: Add half of regular deck
Discard half of the other deck, leaving half a deck of regular cards and half a deck of double-sided cards.

Step 3: Set up the trick
Put the regular half on top of the double-sided half, and show the new deck to an audience. Split the deck into the two halves, placing the regular half face up next to the double-sided half on the table.

Step 4: Ask someone to choose a card
Fan the regular cards and have an audience member choose one.

Step 5: Shuffle the halves together
Shuffle the two halves together; keeping the regular half face up so it will appear that the cards are mixed up front-to-back and back-to-front.

Make sure to keep one side of the double-sided cards hidden so as not to reveal the gimmick.

Step 6: Place the card back in
Have the audience member replace the card anywhere in the deck, face down. The regular cards are still facing up.

Step 7: Flip the cards and fan
Shuffle the cards and then flip them around in your hands so that all the cards appear face-down. Fan the cards in front of the audience revealing the chosen card as the only card facing up.
