Find a roulette wheel graphic you like online or from a clip art resource on the Internet. Print out as many wheels as you will need for invitations, preferably in color. If you do not have access to a printer or computer, check your local craft store for roulette wheel stickers or other card making supplies. Cut each wheel out carefully using scissors.

Place a wheel on your card-stock. Choose card-stock that compliments your printed roulette wheel. Black or red will conform to the whole gambling theme. Using a drafting compass, trace a circle about a half inch outside of your roulette wheel. You can then remove the wheel and cut out the circle you have just traced on the card-stock. Repeat this for each invitation. You can also use the first card-stock circle as a template to cut out the rest.

Glue or tape each roulette wheel to the center of the cardstock circles you have created. If using glue, allow it to dry thoroughly before moving onto the next step.

Write the details and party information on the back side of each card. These can either be handwritten or printed from the computer and glued. If writing by hand, try gold or silver ink; especially on black cardboard, to make the words stand out. Details for your party should include date, time, location, phone number, your name, and any RSVP information. Consider adding stickers or stamps for further embellishment.

Place each invitation in an envelope. The invitation can be folded in half if needed to fit into the envelope. Stamp and address the envelopes, and send them to your guests. Send the invitation in enough time so that guests can RSVP.
