Flipped, Marked, And Mirrored

This effect is easy to do and requires no skill. The magician shows four cards of the same value, one for each suit (clubs, hearts, spades, and diamonds). One at a time each card turns face down showing each individually is a blue back. Then they turn red with black 'X's' on them. The surprise finish is when all the cards change to mirrors. This is a nice little effect that you can keep in your wallet or pocket and take with you wherever you go.
