 The really cute food labels & toppers came from Shindig Parties TO GO. Amanda was amazing in getting them to me (even after I forgot to download & the link expired). You can see the drink bottle labels, the food cards, the banner, and cupcake toppers. I printed a lot more from the collection, but ran out of time adding them.
