Origin is only needed to download Sims 3 and the packs. Once downloaded the installer is external from Origin and the game doesn't need it to run. You could even uninstall Origin once you've finished downloading everything and the game will still run :)
You just need to make sure that you add the relevant folders into the last installed pack (last by release date) as per Corey's instructions. So for you I think that's Island Paradise.
