ARCTC Designs - Monster High Birthday Invitations Review

 
Disclosure: We received this digital file in exchange for our honest review. All opinions and experiences are our own and may differ from yours. 

ARCTC Designs
 ARCTC Designs is run by Jeanette who has a daughter. She creates these awesome invitation digital downloads purely for fun. You can order invitations, thank you cards, candy bag toppers and more from her. She started out by creating stuff in Photoshop for fun and then started making invitations for her family and friends. Everyone was telling her to sell her stuff on Etsy. Since Jeanette started making her own invitations to cut down on costs she does not charge much for her invites. Super sweet and awesome hey?!

 Monster High Birthday Invitations!
Digital File
 I chose this Monster High Invitation ($3ARV) because Jada has loved Monster High for years and still does. One of her favorite characters is Clawdeen Wolf who is on the top left with the brown hair. I personally prefer the appearance of Draculara and Frankiestein (the other two on the invite). I love that the information for the party is placed inside of the Monster High Skull Logo. At the time that I chose an invite design she did have more options to choose from. You can simply message Jeanette to find out what other designs she could do or ask if she can do the one you have in mind. 
 
Printed Invite
The invites can be printed as 5x7's or you can request a different size. You should let her know if you'd like them in a different size though so she can properly edit the text size and such so it is readable. When printing a 5x7 invite, you can print two per page. You could also purchase some plain card stock and print your invites directly onto the card stock if your printer will allow that thickness. The invitations are only $3 and they are sent via a digital file! So for just $3, a little ink and paper you can print as many invitations you may need!

Jeanette is very patient and quick with her work! I originally gave her an address, date and time... well, we hadn't booked the hotel yet and ended up needing to switch hotels. She had already created the invites for us, however, I sent her the new information and kindly asked if she wouldn't mind changing it on the invites. She actually had to edit the invite three times for me. She did just that without a single fuss. I was so thankful for her being so flexible and easy to work with on this invitation. 

Jada loved her invites and proudly handed them out to a few girls at school and a couple of the neighborhood girls. She also excitedly gave them to family and friends. My now double digits daughter loved the design of the invitations.

Nana's Doll Furniture Review

Disclosure: We received the below products in exchange for our honest review, all opinions and experiences are our own and may differ from yours. 

Nana's Doll Furniture
 Liz Morris is the creator and owner behind Nana's Doll Furniture. Liz found herself struggling between being a stay at home mom and wanting to have a career that fit her unique personality. She is an interior decorator and has a crafty mind so she tinkered around in her workshop to find a way to meld her skills. Her husband will never forget the day that she came upstairs waiving around a chopped up piece of cardboard screaming, "Honey I have figured it out!". This is when it all started, she started making simple pieces of Barbie furniture out of recycled materials like cardboard and toilet paper rolls. Slowly but surely her company evolved into wooden crafted pieces and upholstery. She creates everything on her own and fully runs the business on her own. 

Living Room Set

We received this super cute and fun living room set ($74.50ARV) which includes a sofa, 2 accent chairs, 4 chevron pillows, an end table, coffee table and a lamp. I was stunned as I pulled the items out of the box due to their amazing quality and the special detail that you can tell has gone into each individual piece. I know this set will last Jada quite a while, maybe even until she "out grows" her Monster High dolls. Pretty sure I was just as excited as Jada as I pulled it all out of the box (while she was sleeping of course). 

 The Doll Sofa Set ($45ARV) includes the Sofa Couch (9 1/4" x 3 1/4" x 5"), 2 accent chairs (3 1/4" x 3 1/4") as well as the 4 throw pillows. These are perfect sizes for use with Monster High dolls. The LED Doll Lamp ($12ARV) is so awesome! It's a real working lamp for your dolls! This lamp measures approximately 4" tall, the batteries are included and easy to replace if need be. The Coffee Table ($12.50ARV) is also pretty neat, I love that it has little rhinestones around the four sides to give it an extra pop. The coffee table measures 4.5" x 4.5". The accent/side table ($5ARV) measures 3 1/2" x 3" x 3" and is available in black, white and wood stains.


Jada loves her living room set from Nana's Doll House. She also agrees that the doll furniture is the perfect size for her Monster High Dolls and couldn't wait to get home and play with it all together. I will update with a picture of her playing with the furniture set and her dolls. These will make it more fun for her and her friend when they play dolls as well. You can never have too many accessories for dolls, right?

Corso's Cookies Skulltastic Cookie Bouquet Review




Magento Commerce
Disclosure: We received the below products in exchange for our honest review. All opinions and experiences are our own and may differ from yours. 

Corso's Cookies
 Corso's Cookies are made from a cookie recipe that they have perfected and each cookie is hand decorated. They understand that they are creating a special gift and do everything they can to ensure that you will be completely satisfied. Every Corso's Cookies is individually wrapped and protected to prevent damage to the cookie and work of art that was created on it. To ensure a safe journey for the cookies while they are on their way to you, they are packaged with extra cushioning, boxed and shipped across the country in perfect condition. 

Skulltastic Cookie Bouquet
 Corso's Cookies are soft, buttery shortbread cookies which are made with high-quality ingredients, baked fresh each and every day. They are made in the USA and hand decorated with tasty royal icing.  We received a 9 cookie arrangement of the Skulltastic Cookie Bouquet ($39.99ARV). 


These cookie bouquets come in 6 count and 9 count. The bouquet was perfect on her Monster High themed birthday party table and we received many comments on the bouquet. Jada enjoyed the appearance as well as the taste of her Skulltastic Cookies. I liked that the cookies were not all the same colors, the variation really helped to make each cookie pop with it's own uniqueness as well as each one being hand decorated. 

 


Jada being silly and trying to pretend that her cookie is a mask or her face. She opened one cookie and then decided she wanted a different color icing. Her and her friend TT greatly enjoyed making their cookies "talk" with each other before enjoying their first bites. Her two brothers and grandma also tried the cookies and everyone loved them.  


Oh just modeling with her Skulltastic Cookie from Corso's Cookies. If you love delicious, soft, buttery shortbread cookies you will love these cookie bouquets. Shortbread cookies are one of my absolute favorite cookies of all time! These were absolutely delicious and I can't wait to get another bouquet for Cade's birthday this summer. Originally I had assumed that these cookies were going to come on sticks that would be holding them up in the bouquet box base. I wasn't to fond of that thought so I was pleasantly surprised when we opened our package and they were not on sticks and the cookies were just taped in place.

Sadie Flower Designs - Custom Hand Painted Monster High Shoes Review

Disclosure: We received the product in exchange for our honest review. All opinions and experiences are our own and may differ from yours.

Sadie Flower Designs
 Sadie Flower is the amazing artist behind the custom shoes at Sadie Flower Designs, she is also an aspiring freelance artist and has artwork available in various forms. When I came across Sadie Flower Designs on Etsy I knew I needed to see a pair of her beautifully hand painted shoes in person. I requested a Monster High inspired pair for my daughter, absolutely amazing! 


Monster High Inspired Hand Painted Shoes ($60ARV) are a one of a kind, unique creation. Each shoe, no matter the theme or design is custom made to the customers liking. For these shoes my daughter chose two of her favorite Monster High characters; Cleo De Nile on right shoe and Clawdeen Wolf on the left shoe. 


I am astonished by all of the little detail with in the two characters, these are absolutely amazing. My daughter's jaw dropped when she opened this present. When I told her they were hand painted she was in even more awe.



Everyone at Jada's party absolutely loved the shoes and asked where I found them. There was discussion among the adults on what designs they'd all love on a pair of shoes for themselves.


These custom hand painted shoes are purely amazing, wait I've already said that... they are created with sharpie on canvas shoes and then a protective sealant is applied over that to help preserve the art work. All around the shoes there is artwork, nothing is left blank/unworked. These take so much amazing talent. I'm not sure that Jada will completely wear these out, I have a feeling they will sit on her dresser more than she wears them as she will cherish them. She has a heart for art and is quite the little artist herself so she will definitely fully appreciate the time and talent that was put into these.

Detomaso DISCOVERER World Time Men's Watch Review

Disclosure: We received this watch in exchange for our honest review. All opinions and experiences are my own and may differ from yours. This post contains affiliate links meaning I will be compensated if you make a purchase after clicking my link.

 Detomaso - Marks A Man! 

We received the Detomaso DISCOVERER World Time Men's Watch ($235ARV) for review from Detomaso. This watch is has a multi-world time functionality and a city display which leaps from one place in the world to another at the push of a button. It has a separate seconds and date display as well as an alarm function. It is considered a real time traveler. This stunning and masculine watch is durable, high-quality stainless steel casing and sapphire-coated glass protects the DISCOVERER on each and every expedition. The hexagonal-shaped eyes, striking grooved bezel and hands featuring Super-LumiNova light pigments emphasis its strength. The watches  dimensions are 7.8 x 6.1 x 2.8 inches. It is also water resistant up to 330 feet.


The packaging of this watch is wonderful, it is packaged in protective foam inside of the hexagon stainless steel case and then inside of the hexagon black box. This helps keep the watch safe on it's long journey from Germany. 


  
  • XXL world time watch with Japanese movement from Epson
  • Multi-time function for various time zones
  • High-quality stainless steel casing with sapphire-coated mineral crystal glass
  • Comfortable genuine leather band in a durable matt look
  • Distinctive shapes and practical design for every journey


I love every aspect of this watch, the durable and comfortable genuine leather band, the buckle closure, the various times from cities across the world, etc. So much to love about this watch, it's appearance and durability are top aspects for myself. I've always preferred wearing men's watches and this is the best one I've wore so far. 


 I have received many compliments for this watch and will continue to proudly wear it through day to day life. You could wear it as a special occasions watch or a day to day watch, you're personal preference. I'm not very girly so it doesn't clash with a pink outfit or anything like that, it's so simple to coordinate with an outfit though due the simple black and red colors through out the watch and band.

Sandwich Bros. of Wisconsin Hand-held Pita Pocket Sandwiches Review

Disclosure: We received the below products in exchange for our honest review. All opinions and experiences are our own and may differ from yours. 

Sandwich Bros.
 Sandwich Bros. of Wisconsin is a brand from Kangaroo which was founded by brother John and George Kashou in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Kangaroo was founded 37 years ago in 1979, 10 years before I was born. The brothers grew to be a leading supplier of specialty breads and North America's leading supplier of private label pita chips. The family focused on their award-winning Pocket Breads and developed a new line of premium hand-held Sandwiches, which are highly praised by consumers as well as trade. 

With the trend growing in hand-held snack and breakfast foods and the lack of quality offerings they made a commitment to produce the tastiest, highest quality and most convenient ready-to-eat sandwiches. Their line of frozen sandwiches is marketed under the brand, Sandwich Bros. of Wisconsin, which pays homage to the money local Wisconsin vendors the company partners with. 

Kangaroo is firmly committed to keeping our planet clean and green. All inedible food waste is donated to Wisconsin farmers so that all waste can be recycled and all short coded goods are donated to the Wisconsin Hunger Task Force.

 

I received vouchers/coupons for Sandwich Bros. of Wisconsin products, this allowed us to go to the store and see first hand the selections that were available to us. At our local Woodman's we found these four varieties of Sandwich Bros. We chose two boxes of Chicken Melts, a box of Angus Cheeseburgers and a box of Gyro Sliders. I was very impressed with the quantity and price per box. The size of each sandwich was decent as well. 

Everyone in our household greatly enjoyed our Sandwich Bros. of Wisconsin hand-held pita pocket sandwiches. Even our youngest mowed down on the Chicken Melts. These disappeared as quickly as we brought them into the house. They are quick and easy to make which would be the idea item to bring to work since they don't take long at all to heat through. 

I am typically pretty picky about frozen foods, but these did not disappoint me at all in flavor and quality of the ingredients. I thought for sure the pita pocket would become either soggy and gross or rock hard and inedible. However, neither of those happened! They honestly heated up perfectly! Every time we grocery shop I now look to see if these are offered in which ever store we are shopping. If we happen to spot them, we definitely buy several boxes. 
 

Here are just the Chicken Melts which I bought in hope of at least my youngest eating and enjoying... well, I didn't really get as many of these as I had wanted because he kept chowing down on them so quick. I typically do not at all care for chicken patties, chicken nuggets, etc. due to the grizzle/fat that always seems to end up only in mine. These had none of that, I was so ecstatic to be able to eat a once frozen Chicken Melt with out biting into anything unpleasant. 


Here are the Gyro Sliders and Angus Cheeseburgers. I am not a fan of Gyros so I did not try those, but Dan said that they were pretty tasty. The Angus Cheeseburgers were tasty as well, the burger was nice and moist. I really dislike if there is any hard edges and there were none with these. The cheese on all of the sandwiches melted very nicely as well, that's a big requirement for us Wisconsinites.

Sudsy Dough - Moldable Bath Soap Review

Sudsy Dough Moldable Bath Soap

Sudsy Dough

Sudsy Dough is a fun bath toy that also doubles as moldable and scented dough which is also cleansing soap! It was created as a fun sensory soap to make bath time more fun for their daughter who didn't really enjoy her bathes. With the creation of Sudsy dough, their daughter now asks for bathes nightly! Children can squeeze Sudsy Dough while in the bath tub, rub it on as a cleansing body wash or take it outside of the tub and make custom-shaped soaps! If left out in open air Sudsy Dough will dry as mini bars of scented soap. Oh and lets not forget the surprise bath toy hidden inside of each Sudsy Dough. 
 

We received a 12oz tub of the Merry Mango Sudsy Dough ($14ARV) for review. Sudsy Dough is infused with Shea Butter & Coconut Oil allowing it moisturize while cleaning. They come in four different scents and colors. It does create a little bit of suds, but not a ton. Sudsy Dough is also Paraben-free, Phthalate-free and sulfate-free, plus it is handmade in the USA!

My boys absolutely loved playing with their Sudsy Dough. I had to split the tub in half so they both had their own balls of dough to play with. For about a week or two after the Sudsy Dough was all gone, because it is soap after all, they continued to ask for it. My boys have never disliked bathes and it's typically hard to get them out of the tub. However, it is great for sensory and since it's something fun to play with it makes the sensory aspect of it even greater. My 5 year old has some sensory issues and he was a little leary on touching the Sudsy Dough at first. He seen his brother and myself playing with it and then he started to poke at it a little bit until he was comfortable enough to hold it in his own hands. Who wouldn't love some bath time play dough?




Our surprise toy was a cute little green rubber duckie. This little duck has not left our bath tub since we opened our Sudsy Dough. He's so little and cute! 

Sudsy Dough will make bath time fun for any little ones who do not care for it. It will also help with Sensory problems as it has for my middle child. The dough did seem to start crumbling apart after a little while of having it and it being taken out to be played with in the tub and then stored back in the container. However, my boys still had tons of fun with it and I would definitely buy some more for them. We're always looking for new toys and fun things to play with in the bath tub.
