Yes, I think it looks like the "card trick" pattern. Maybe the light yellow just doesn't show up enough to make it look like the pattern. Nice work.

Thank you, when I purchase this jelly roll the picture of the yellow was a lot brighter looking.

I agree - and with lots of contrast not only from the block and the background, but good contrast in color value from one "card" to the next.
The tone-on-tone for the background is almost too strong with your other colors.

Other than that, yes, it IS the card trick block.
