You will learn to create the illusion of a sticker visually teleporting off a card box onto a nearby empty lighter. Follow these steps carefully to amaze any audience.

 

Materials Needed

1X -Invisible Sticker Box
1X - Red Bic lighter (not included)
1X - Extra sticker (included with the purchase of Invisible Sticker)

 

Preparing the Card Box

1. Remove the red film from the adhesive on bottom of the flattened card box.

2. Assemble the box by popping it open and then  folding in the bottom tabs & out the tabs at the top. 

Preparing the Lighter

1. Take the extra sticker and rip it in half. Use the bottom of the word playing as an easy guide.
2. Place the top half of the sticker over the Logo.
3. Leave a space about the width of a toothpick and now place the second half below the first, making it look as if it teleported off the box and reappeared so quickly that not even one atom of the sticker had time to rearrange in space.

 

Performance


1. Setup in the Pocket
Keep the card box with the hinge facing downward with the opening facing away from your body. When reaching into your pocket, use your first finger to catch the open edge and rotate it open until it stops flat.

2. Displaying the Card Box
Display the box with the hinge open and the sticker face your audeince. With the white edges being casually covered by both your thumbs as you hold the box with both hands. The red design with camouflage the ledge as long as the end of the box with the sticker faces your audeince. Tilt the top end of the card box towards the sky as you remove the right thumb that was concealing the hinge's right white boarder ledge. Do this by facing this side of the box toward your body when the right thumb is not concealing. 


3. Retrieving the Lighter
Reach into your pocket and feel for the side with the flint facing to your left. Ensure the sticker is hidden on the back side of the lighter. Remove the lighter with two fingers underneath the bottom and your thumb on the top right edge.

4. Paddle Move
Hold the lighter parallel to the ground. Roll your right thumb from right to left. As you point the silver end of the lighter to the sky. Casually return to the horizontal position while rolling your thumb back to the beginning position, on the top right edge.

5. Positioning for the Illusion
Bring the top right corner of the card box backside (the side with the hinge opened flat on. close to the lighter. Use the lighter to cover the right edge of the box flap to avoid revealing the shadow. Use your left hand to cover the left border of the white area on the box flap.

6. Creating a Convincing Illusion
Quickly roll the lighter in your right hand fingertips executing the paddle move. This will make the sticker appear to instantly arrive on the lighter. Simultaneously release the hinge by shifting your left thumb a small amount down the box. Ensure the lighter covers the right side of the gimmick where the right thumb would conceal. The synchronized movement of the paddle move and the hinge being released will make it appear as the sticker has instantly teleported from the card box to lighter.

Final Convincer
Slowly open the box tongue and rotate your wrist showing both sides of the box. The point here is to clearly show the sticker is not hiding in any of the obvious places, reinforcing the illusion of it leaving the box.
