Nyomi's Princess Sofia The First Inspired 4th Birthday Party...

We did it! We pulled it off in a month's time! It is definitely a princess party decoration on a low budget with the help of our sponsors: Norma Caguinguin, Johanna Boyle, Kay Rono and Arnel Canedo! Anyway, enjoy the pictures below...

Her boxed invitation with RSVP card and a wand :)

Her valet like yard sign, door sign and entrance story sign.

Tiaras and crowns setting for her Royal Guests. And Raffle Draw for fun for her piggy bank :p

I really didn't have that much time to print and cut Happy Birthday individually to make a banner, so I just framed it instead LOL.

One of my favorite setting of this party. The Photo Booth!

Here's our dessert table setting...

Our favors/giveaways: Crown keychain for boys and Sofia The First Amulet like necklace.

Nyomi's homemade piñata! She wanted a piñata but didn't want to buy the "Sofia" one because she didn't want to hit Sofia. So she asked if she can make it with Cedric LOL! And I let her with Daddy's help.

More of Nyomi...

Presents time!

Hope you had enjoyed the party pictures! And oh! Just FYI, Sweet Party Nyomi is our new shop name! We will sell Printables and Favor/ Party Supplies! If there is something particular you saw and liked but don't see it listed at the shop yet, please don't hesitate to convo me!

And if you're interested in the backdrops we used here, just let me know :)

So hop on over to https://www.etsy.com/shop/SweetPartyNyomi :)

Shop temporary closed...

At first I had this thought that while I'll be busy this coming weeks, I am going to temporarily close my shop, just so I have more time to focus on what needs to be done. But then my little girl asked why my shop is not named after her... (uh oh)... LOL! 

So I decided... 

As soon as I got the extra time, I will move and open a new shop!

(My child will always be my boss! LOL!)

Well... Yippeeee! Something new to look forward to, so my loves... keep checking back for updates! And while you're at it and reading this... feel free to drop a line and suggest a new shop name! :)

Why hello there, party...

It's been a while again since I've last posted anything... but at the same time, it really didn't seem like it has been that long LOL! So sorry for being idle (unintentionally)...

Anyhoo... my baby girl is turning 4 in April. Last year, I said to myself, no more big parties... as in no more! Boy, was I wrong! LOL! Nyomi wanted a big party, she's been asking to have one oh since after Christmas and I've been saying NO since then. Up until recently... the daddy caved in (after numerous bugging every single day for months) but I still said No. Then she started getting nightmares, I was told that she might be in a roller coaster emotional ride and might be dealing with her emotions subconsciously instead because she's afraid to show it... and because of that, I had no choice but to say okay too (it's just tough playing the bad cop if ya know what I mean).

So now... I think I'm in a roller coaster emotional ride myself! LOL!!!! My child has developed this obsession for Sofia The First since last year, and that's the theme she wants this year (not surprised). Then I go, at the back on my head, a princess theme? What? On a "low" budget and then just a month to plan it? What???? Yes, I was practically stressing out.

I decided to just start with creating her invitations and go from there. But she turned down 3 of my designs LOLLLL! Yes, she's only turning 4 and already so picky! hahahaha I think my nose is bleeding from all of this LOL... I don't know how I'm going to pull this off.

Well... I'll keep you all posted with what and how my plans are going to be for this party... so stay tuned. Any vendors out there that wants to collaborate with me are more than welcome. Just let me know :)

Till I blog again...

A Jewelry Affair...

It's not always about the brand name... It's not always about what's trending...

Jewelry Affair by Sharifa Carreon has just recently launched her website. And here are just some of her creations... from earrings to bracelets to necklaces... she does them all!

Royale Wellness - L-GlutaPOWER Product Review

I haven't really done any product reviews in my whole entire blog life but I just had to share a few products that I've tried from Royale Wellness, and I'll start with L-GlutaPower product.

First off, if you had total thyroidectomy done... then you'd know what life is like without thyroids. Although thankful to still be alive, you and I know... it seem as if you're a living dead. Anyway, I had my surgery back in Aug 2010 and then treatments after treatments??!!! I don't just feel like a zombie, I looked like one too LOL! And since then, every time I take pictures, I always had to filter it LOL! The thing is, I was never that vain of a person, but the discoloration, growing dark spots and patch likes, dry rough skin all over surely was getting on my last damn nerves... seriously...

So anyway, when my bestfriend started her home business selling Royale products, I wanted to support her... and so I asked what products will help me with my skin, weight and energy. And one of the products she introduced was this particular one and I purchased it as soon as I got a go signal from my Endocrinologist.


So this is how my skin looked like the day before I started taking these. Yea... ewwww LOL!

And this is how my skin looked like after 7 days. Not bad right? I looked like a human being bit by bit LOL!


Now you're wondering exactly what does this product do and how can you benefit from it? Read along :)
♥ metabolize carbohydrates
♥ aid in the oxidation of fats
♥ prevent cells oxidation
♥ protect red and white blood cells
♥ build healthy immune response
♥ protect the system against oxidative damage

♥ people who wish to have fairer & whiter skin

Now here's a shining shimmering difference after 13 days today LOL! Yup! No filter :D

All this (30 capsules) for only $44 usd plus shipping! And if you are interested in purchasing this, please like RL Health & Beauty by Royale on Facebook, and send Lynn or Ryann your message. By the way, if you are after the whitening effect instead of simply detoxifying, ask them about the L-GlutaPOWER 700 :)

Thanks for reading and hope you enjoyed this first product review of mine. Till I blog again with another review, so stay tuned! Love love love to all...

Peek-A-Boo!

What's happening, darlings???!!! My apologies that I have not blogged in quite some time... Well... WOW! Since last year October! What a shame!

A lot has been going on actually... from the busy holidays to a whole lot of doctor check ups and personal matters to take care of. I will also have another precautionary cancer treatment this coming summer, so that's going to be fun... NOT!

Anyhoo, I'm thinking of opening another online shop... it's going to be more of a personal touch though, more of a homie feel with me. I will still be selling printables and those printables that I have on Party Prints & Pieces. I might occasionally sell some extra party supplies, so watch out for that! :)

For now, I hope all is well with you all my fellow readers and bloggers. I promise I'll stop by your blogs soon!
