Handmade 2nd Birthday Car Invitations

I decided for Liam's 2nd Birthday I would make his invitations. Can't be too hard eh? After I started putting all the pieces together I found just the right elements to make it work without being too complex. Here's how it went down.
While talking to my sister on the phone I got the idea to hand make car shaped invitations. I tried to explain th her how I thought it should work out. I took a post it note and cut it out freehand. I was so impressed with myself I saved it! I figured I could find a picture online to model my design after and draw it myself. It's somewhat VW Beetle-ish.

I thought it would be cute to have the door open and reveal the party details. I then picked out scrapbook paper I have on hand for taillights, headlights and windows.

Yeah, that got to be a little much when I was going to make 50 cards. so the design got whittled down to this:

I bought number stickers at the dollar store to complete the look and this is how they were mailed:
