After Two Months of Labor...

This baby was born. The Tenth Anniversary Boxed VVIP Invitation for Harrah's New Orleans. I am actually pretty proud of keeping it as intact as I did considering all the challenges faced in the process of designing and producing this piece – which, of course, are the same challenges that pop up in designing ANY piece, specifically one as high-end and highly visible as this one.

Inspired by the familiar textures in a casino – card table felt and playing cards – I created a keepsake invitation in a table felt-covered box. The box included a booklet detailing the impressive contributions of Harrah's New Orleans to its community, an invitation to the VIP Anniversary Party and a commemorative deck of custom playing cards.
