Monthly Scrapbooking Layout Kit Club at The ScrapRoom

TSR OWNER:

TAMMY HARP, Owner

Hi! My name is Tammy Harp, and I am the owner of The ScrapRoom. I have been scrapbooking since high school. My passion for scrapbooking has made running The ScrapRoom for the past five years a gift from God and a dream come true for me. My husband and I have been married for over 18 years, and we have five boys, ages 16, 15, 13, 10, and 9, who help assemble and package your scrapbooking kits in their spare time. It is my desire that fellow scrapbookers will use our kits to help make a dent in those piles of photos and undocumented memories and "...get more pages done!"

LAN AMPHONE

Hello! My name is Lan Amphone. I’ve grown up and lived in Kansas all my life. I met my husband Lam in college and had plans to move away to a bigger city, but we ended up sticking around because it was the best choice for our career and both of our families live nearby. We’ve been married 7 years and have three spunky, energetic kids, ages 4, 2, and 2 months old. I work full time as a tax accounting specialist even though you will often find me daydreaming about pages and all the new stuff I would like to get! I became addicted to this hobby nine years ago and my favorite part of the process is embellishing. It’s like the icing on a cake! Besides scrapbooking, I enjoy photography, reading, aerobics, and spending time with my family.

CHRISTINE DUNKER

Hello!!! My name is Christine Dunker and I am thrilled to be designing for TSR. I have been married for 19 years to Darren and we have 4 children: Alex 15, Madison 13, Grace 12, and Liam 4 years old. I have been scrapping in some form or another since college keeping photo journals, scrapbooks, etc... Some of my other interests include photography, stamping, knitting, cooking, gardening and reading (LOVE reading the books that my kids are into--current FAV is The Hunger Games!!! Ohhh what a great read). I have to admit though I don't get nearly the time for these interests lately as taking care of 4 active kids consumes most of my time. Luckily we are having a great time and enjoying the ride!!! I just grab my camera and run!!

JENNIFER MOORE

Hey there! I'm Jennifer Moore (Jenny) - a small town Texas girl, born again Christian, mommy to 2 beautiful boys, wife to my high school sweetheart, scrapbook supply junkie, and occasional paper sniffer. :) I also work as a Medical Transcriptionist out of my home. Though it keeps me plenty busy, I love the fact that I am able to work out of my home so that I don't miss one minute with my boys! I love to travel and explore new places, and I hope to see all of the world I can. I love music of all kinds, and I love laughing until it hurts! I have been scrapping for about 6-7 years now, and I just can't get enough. I love the creative outlet it provides, not to mention the legacy it leaves. I am extremely exciting to be on the Design Team here at TSR and am looking forward to sharing inspiration with you all. Working with kits is an awesome way for me to make the most out of my scrappy time since everything is coordinated for me and I can find everything at once.

DOUBLESHOT CLUB BARISTAS:

REBECCA BOSE

Hello, I'm Rebecca Bose. I was born and raised in Scottsdale, Arizona and after doing a bit of moving around we settled in Eastern Iowa two years ago. I am a midwest girl at heart. My family consists of my wonderful husband Thomas, and my two adorable little boys, Andrew (6) and Nicholas (4). I started scrapping over six years ago shortly after Andrew was born and have been hooked ever since. It is definately one of my passions and has become a huge part of who I am. Along with creating layouts I am a cardmaker as well. Sometimes making a card is all I need to get my creative juices flowing. When I am not scrapping I enjoy cooking, reading, and photography though I have a lot to learn! I am so excited to be a part of the TSR team and I hope to inspire you!

SHAWNNA SAMPLES

Hi there! My name is Shawnna Samples and I am an imperfect, passionate, future nurse, fan of Jesus, wife to a seriously awesome husband, and mom to two children here on earth and one in heaven. I am quite nomadic but currently reside in Arkansas. You can usually find me in my favorite pair of jeans, a t-shirt, and flip flops playing in my scrap room. I {heart} my planner/blackberry, owls, hedgies, and have always dreamed of becoming a mermaid someday. I love to scrapbook and have been doing so for 10+ years now. I love the calmness that I find in creating. I have a pile of scrapbooks bearing witness to my massive enjoyment of all things crafty. My scrapping style is somewhat chaotic. I will use random supplies and mix mismatched patterned paper, but over all I like to just be myself and let my freak flag fly.

SKETCH ARTIST:

JULIE BONNER

Hello!! My name is Julie Bonner & I live in Crownsville, Maryland. I am a SAHM to my adorable 2 year old son, Ryan, and have been married to my husband, Justin, for 6 wonderful years! I have always enjoyed preserving pictures, cards, newspaper clippings, and mementos in albums but it wasn't until the birth of my son that I threw myself completely into all the wonderful products & techniques the industry has to offer. I love to use hand-sewing, inking, pen detail, stamping, and distressing techniques to add that perfect touch to my projects - while still maintaining a focus on photos. Scrapbooking has been a gift that allows me to preserve my family's precious memories while providing me with a satisfying, creative outlet. I also LOVE creating sketches & currently run a weekly sketch challenge site called 52 Sketches 52 Weeks. I am honored and so very excited to be the Monthly Sketch Artist for The Scrap Room.

OUR MODERATING TEAM::

ANGELA LOUGHRIDGE

Hi my name is Angela Loughridge! I live in Arkansas with my 3 energetic children...Dylan 12, Abbey 10, Maddie-7 and my wonderful husband of 8 years...Brad. We always seem to be on the go, but I never turn down a chance to snap a photo or two. A friend introduced me to the world of scrapping 3 years ago and I have been hooked ever since. I quickly found TSR soon after that and as they say the rest is history. I am blessed to be a part of such a wonderful online community here at TSR. Since entering into the world of scrapbooking I have also ventured into card-making and altering projects. In addition to crafting with paper I love reading, cooking, surfing the net and spending time with my family. You can check out my work on my blog at http://www.aloughridge.blogspot.com/

AMY RICHMOND

I’ve been married to my husband John since Sept. 2000 and we have one daughter Madelyne. She is the center of all my scrapping since she is the only child. My MIL Linda is also a member of TSR, so between the both of us Maddie has alot of LO's! I started scrapping shortly after meeting my MIL, I looked through a few of her albums and decided to give it a try, my first album was of our cats; I figured if I messed up, it wouldn't be a biggie. I don't consider myself to be a trendy scrapper; I just go with whatever strikes my mood at the time. If anything, I consider myself to be simple with my scrapbooking. I am so excited to be a part of the moderating team and to have the chance to create the newsletter every month!
