Default casino night ideas?

I am helping to throw a couples shower and the theme is a casino night. Any cute ideas? Anyone have any casino type-stamps?

Thanks,
Amanda

I made some coasters that look like dice. I used the solid circles from simple shapes and just stamped them in the appropriate places for the differenct faces of the dice. I did this for bunco (a dice game) but everyone loved them and they would work for casino night.

One of the special issues of Paper Crafting took large diecut shapes of red and black cardstock (diamond, heart, spade, club), mounted actual playing card on them, strung them together to make a garland to decorate the room. They also did layered circles in poker colors to make pretend poker chips. They color copied and reduced playing cards to about 1 1/2", mounted them on cardstock and attached them to drink hoops for drink identifiers. They even color copied real money (lots of pieces of it together) to cut down the copies and place as inserts into the paper plates (which were also red or black). So the plates appeared to be lined in $.

If you are making invitations for the shower, surely there would be some way to make any of the circle stamps look like poker chips. I'll have to give it a try and see if I can come up with something.
