The inside contains the important party information about when and what time folks need to wander on down to the TMI homestead for some farm-fresh fun. The red doors are textured scrapbook paper that I found on clearance, and the white trim (and the inside) is basic card stock. I printed the inside text two to a page, trimmed them, glued on the barn doors, and then adding the white trim accents.
These invitations were cheap to make, but took a lot of time. Thank goodness the Big Guy helped! I firmly believe that my time is worth some serious cash (there's so little of it--it must be a hot commodity!) so if I had to do it again I would just purchase these printable invitations from Wants and Wishes. Live and learn, right?!
Overall, I am really happy with how these turned out and I've gotten several compliments on them. And bonus: making these invitations fulfilled my New Year's Resolutions to be more frugal and to craft more. Hopefully the parties will turn out just as good as the invitations did!
