Chameleon Cards (with Added Ending)

The other day I watched Julio's video on a deck color change, and I thought combining it with the Chameleon Cards routine could really give both of them a boost.

The idea would be to use a red or blue card box with a contrasting color deck inside, along with a double-faced card matching the box color, and the Chameleon Cards.

We remove the deck, making sure the double-faced card matching the box is visible. We show the deck and then locate the Chameleon Cards, which we place face up on top of the double-faced card, holding a pinky break. We pick up the Chameleon Cards with a wrist turn that leaves the deck face up, concealing that it has now changed color.

Once the Chameleon routine is complete, but without showing the backs of the cards, we reveal that the deck has also changed color. This is the moment we use to secretly ditch the double-backer on top of the deck, covering it with the rest of the cards. Now, we reveal the colored backs one by one on the table, and using the excuse that they can examine them, we lap the double-faced card, which then allows us to have the entire deck examined.

I think this is well explained, but I didn't want to include the full Chameleon routine since it's sold in the shop.
