My project made especially for this hop

Birthday Bash 6 x 6 paperbag album

I used assorted ribbons and key rings for the binder


I made this album so that the right side is for a photo and the left side is for journaling on all of the two page layouts in this album


I used Fiskars CUPCAKE stencils


I used the Cricut DON JON font


I used assorted patterned paper from various companies


I wanted the album pages SIMPLE so that the focus is on the photos


It would also be FUN to have each person at the party write something in the journaling areas


Back Cover


5 extra photo mats and/or journaling box
Album Designed by Corrine Paul

Introducing Bergel Bear the Park Ranger

From my Penny and Dime Bear Collection


Bergel Bear designed by Corrine Paul

Bergel Bear is Olivia Bear's cousin.

I am calling this BEAR COLLECTION Penny and Dime Bears because I used penny's and dimes to trace around for their paws and ears~

I am thinking Bergel Bear the Park Ranger will need to keep campers and hiker in line!! He will need a canoe so he can check rivers and streams. He is an avid bird watcher and naturalist. He will be dealing with animal control and perhaps visit some local zoos. He will help teach survival skills and boat safety. He may even take you to his fire watch station and go spelunking in some local caves!!

Checking For Interest~ Olivia Bear Blog Hop June 11th

Olivia Bear

I have created a little bear of my very own and I named her Olivia after one of my cats. I've played around with the pattern and I've used her in a few layouts during some recent hops posted below on this blog. I have had some good reviews. My main goal for the pattern was to keep it SIMPLE and EASY to use but yet versatile. Eventually I will create other patterns so that Olivia will have a whole world to live and play in. I will create other patterns for friends, family and playmates so that Olivia is not alone.



I was thinking of Hosting a hop to release Olivia Bear for others to use. If you sign up I will email a copy of my pattern for your personal use. (I do not have it in SVG yet) so this is a hand cut hop. I may limit the sign up to 10. I would also require everyone in the line to post the hop on their blog and facebook pages and send out facebook invites to help promote the hop.

Terms of Use for my Personal Designs or Patterns.
When listing completed projects on eBay, blogs, etsy, facebook, personal websites, forums or online venues, or if using these patterns for a project submitted to magazines or other publications, it is required that credit be given to Corrine Paul in a reasonably visible way. Example; “Pattern used from Corrine Paul http://celebratingordinarymoments.blogspot.com/."



This would be a one day hop ONLY. If you are in the line up you would be required to use my Olivia Bear pattern in a layout, card, etc. I would like to set the date of the hop for the 2nd Sat in June which is June 11th. Possible hop times are 8am-8pm. If you are in the line up you would need to post your project the night before so that means NO AUTO POSTING. Auto posting sometimes doesn't post right or on time and this ruins the flow of the hop and the mood of the players in the line up.

If you are interested leave a comment below that includes your first & last name, blog link and your email address. If you sign up for the hop please make sure you check back for updates, group page information. Only sign up if you are 100% sure you are able to stick to your commitment to the hop date and time.

Thank You!
