Twenty sixteen will not soon be forgotten. In sitting down to write about this past year, I’m realizing just how much went in behind the scenes here at P&C.
We had some seriously epic parties. Seriously epic. A marbled geometric design for a fourteenth birthday, a mermaid under the sea birthday, a surfing safari perfect for the 4th of July, a rainbow unicorn birthday set and the one that tops them all…. our Marinepunk (yes, I had to coin a new term for marine + steampunk) birthday decorations!
Also, file under printables, a few new coordinating sets of Photo Booth Props. These are the absolute best activity to pair with a party – set up a photobooth and snap the night away! Mermaid under the sea props, Rainbow unicorn props, and Marinepunk props.

We also put some time into broadening our line of wholesale and retail goods. Our “Shop the Shelf” line has been a dream of mine for years, and in these past twelve months it has exploded! We now carry Birthday, Halloween and Bridal pennant banners, cake toppers for every occasion, fill-in invitations, gift tags and of course photo booth prop kits!

In addition to designing a ton of new packaged goods, Paper & Cake had the pleasure of working with Operation Shower on five of their baby shower events in 2016. It is an absolute honor to be asked to help out with the graphics so that they can shower our military moms, from coast to coast.
What else? Well, a million new recipes and party ideas (maybe an exaggeration), new youtube videos, a collaboration or two with hgtv.com, a feature on buzzfeed and one amazing office makeover!
Thank you ALL for supporting me and Paper & Cake with your love and your comments and your encouragement and your patronage.
