After months of pondering a custom CPC set, I decided to splurge on a THC Relabel project instead.
This is the first inlay I've made and looking for feedback on it before I start to look into ordering them.
Name: Shoreline Card Room - Vancouver, BC
Background and Inspiration: After 5.5 years together, I finally proposed to my then girlfriend, now fiance, on a little boardwalk in Port Moody, British Columbia. The Shoreline Trail. It's a small nature trail and boardway that wraps around a small length of shore of the Burrard Inlet near Rocky Point Park, just outside of the normal urban sprawl of the Greater Vancouver Area. Port Moody has been our usual escape during the Spring and Summer to visit some local breweries, get an ice cream, or go for a nice walk around the trails.
The Chips:
So here we go. This is the current lineup I'm starting to put together.
Frac: Watermelon Solid is my current leading contender. Hoping I might be able to snag a few racks during the Chip Room's next sale as it appears there may be some included in his haul.
Still considering other options and any suggestions would be appreciated! Hoping to keep to a tigheter budget as I've already exceeded my original budget for this set.
$1: Aurora Star $1 Overlabel
$5: CDM $1 Overlabel
I may eventually choose to add some $25s. But that will likely be for more aesthetic purposes. My home games rarely ever exceed a full rack of $5s, let alone 2.
The Inlay / Label:
My complete lack of graphic design skills was a challenge and I was planning to try to rough something together before hiring a designer to pull it together. Somehow though I ended up with something I am quite happy with. I think there is some fine tuning work to get it ready to order, but it's coming together really well.
I'd love any feedback you may have on these inlays. I am a little worried some of the smaller text and finer details may not show up as well on a finished label.
I have tried to colour match the denomination text with the base colour of each chip using the Paulson to CMYK database I found on here.
