About



Hi, my name is Robyn Correa.  I was born and raised in southeastern Michigan.  A smallish town, really, nestled just between Ann Arbor, MI and Toledo, OH. I became a christian when I trusted Jesus Christ as my personal Saviour at the age of 17.  I have been happily married to my high school sweetheart for 21 years who is also a full time minister.  We have three awesome children ranging in age from 14 to 20.  Two are away at college and I home-school the "baby." Boy, she'd love me publicly calling her that!   I've have been tremendously blessed to have been a stay-at-home mom for all but two of the last 21 years.  

My beautiful family
I was first introduced to Stampin' Up! in 1998 when I was given an invitation to attend the workshop of a friend while living in Indiana.  At the time, I had 3 small children; one being a newborn with special needs.  I told my friend that I wasn't able to attend her party/workshop, so she let me look through a catalog where I picked out a stamp set.  I really just wanted to be courteous and help her out.  I had no idea what to do with the stamp set and it went virtually unused.
In March of 2008, I was invited to another Stampin' Up! party/workshop.  This time I went!  Boy, was I hooked!  I decided shortly after to book my very own workshop; which I held in April.  There was just something about holding that stamp in my hand and putting it to paper that just fit what I needed as a creative outlet.  One week later, after sitting in my living room doing some research online, I made the decision to become a demonstrator.  I signed up right-then-and-there.

I didn't really know what to do next, so I turned to YouTube.  I watched excitedly for 6 months and then decided to start making my own tutorial and sharing my creations.  I was so surprised to see one follower, then 100, then 500.   Now, I'm thrilled and still a little shocked that I have nearly 12,000 people who have subscribed to my crafting videos since January 2009.  During those early days and years, I ran my Stampin' Up! business solely online through my Stampin' Up website. Then, I began to venture out and share various products and even spent time dabbling on design teams, but still  remained a hobbiest demonstrator.  For several years,  while serving overseas I would have my Stampin' Up! orders sent to my stateside address and then my parents would forward it on to me so that I could have new goodies to play with.  That is what I call a love of Stampin' Up! product!

Anyway, all that to say: as one of my 2014 goals I have decided to begin to run my Stampin' Up! business once again.  I have my class schedule posted HERE.  I have even more exciting ideas for classes bursting to fill my calendar than time allows, but I'm always ready to book a workshop or private class.  Just send me a quick message.

My only disclaimer would be for anyone who is local to me that happens upon my blog.  If you already shop with a Stampin' Up! demonstrator, please be loyal to her/him.  I am most definitely not out to horn-in on anyone else's business.  However, if you are new to Stampin' Up!, don't currently have a demonstrator or are new to paper crafting, I'd love the opportunity to earn your business.  Give me a call or send me an e-mail.  I'd love to give you handmade gift and a current promotional catalog. 

Thanks so much for stopping by!

God bless and enjoy getting your fingers inky!
