Todays the Day .... | Best Creation Mini Albumn Blog Hop

"If you go out in the woods today
You're sure of big surprise
If you go out in the woods today
You'd better go in disguise.

For every bear that ever there was
Will gather there for certain, because
Today's the day the teddy bears have their picnic"


Every year near grandma's house there is a community Teddy Bear Picnic that begins with a parade.  It is an annual event for us.  We started going when my oldest nephew was little and he is now graduating!

This is a mini book 3"X4" of the 2010 parade.
Supplies : Best Creation (Bella, Bunny Love, Jubilee)
Tim Holtz tissue tape, Fiskars Punch
Helmar Adhesive






Love how simple this mini book was to create. 
It was one piece of 12X12cut into 3X4" strips and folded in half for the pages
 and the rest I just used a few scraps. 
At the end of a complicated day, its nice to do something simple :)

If you are joining in on the Best Creation Blog Hop,
you have arrived here from Sarah's blog and next on the list is Katrina's blog.

Hope you enjoy the creations, and good luck in winning the fabulous prize!
