ROCHELLE SPEARS, Owner, Designer
|
My name is Rochelle Spears. After 15 years of Real Estate, I "retired" and became a SAHM! :) I have 5 children (32, 28, 22, 15, and 13), 1 daughter-in-law and 2 grand babies! I have a wonderful husband who supports my crafting to the fullest! I have been scrapbooking since 2003 and I just can't get enough of it! I love new products, the smell of new paper, trying out new trends, creating memories, sharing my scrapbooks with others and most of all - helping others document their memories too! :) In 2016 one of my long time dream came true… becoming the owner of The ScrapRoom! I'm super excited for this new adventure!
Besides my family and scrapbooking, you will find me traveling and binging Netflix! I love coffee in the morning, Peach Ice Tea during the day and chocolate candy at night. This is me, Rochelle. :)

BRENDA RAGSDALE, ADMIN, DESIGNER
|
Hi! My name is Brenda Ragsdale.
I am a native of California currently residing in Oregon. I am mother to two awesome adult sons and GrandDiva to three beautiful granddaughters and three handsome grandsons.
On the days that I am not actually scrapbooking, I am doing something scrapbook related, like creating a sketch, blogging, creating challenges, etc. I prefer creating layouts, and will occasionally create a card or altered item. I would say that my style is more on the clean and simple side. I created my first scrapbook album in 2006 and then quit for a few years and did not seriously start scrapping again until the beginning of 2010. I am so glad that I became addicted to scrapbooking as it is the perfect way to record my family’s history and tell each family members personal story. I like scrapping the good, bad and the ugly stories and details as it is all a part of our daily existence.
Besides scrapbooking, I love to travel. try different restaurants, and spend time anywhere there is a lake, river, beach or the ocean.

TINAGALE HUSONG, Video Designer

I've been married for 30 years to my amazing hubby and mom to two wonderful children. They're my whole world. I grew up in a creative home so have been crafty in various ways all my life. In early 2000 I discovered scrapbooking and was hooked. I'm a lover of paper, embellishments, and layering. The photos and stories of my family's life are the most important to me in scrapbooking and the creative art is just icing on the cake. I love to share my scrappy obsession on my YouTube channel and monthly classes.

SUZANNA LEE, Video Designer
|
I am Suzanna Lee; mother, wife, Physical Therapist, cat nap partner and a whole host of other titles! I have long had a hand in the crafting world but my love for patterned paper and fussy cutting began when we moved here to Glen Allen, Virginia and my paper collecting hobby became a paper cutting and layout creating hobby! My first gig as a Design Team member for our (now out of business) local scrapbook store led to another team and another and I have been going ever since. It is an honor to share with the papercrafting community new techniques, innovative ways to use product and share my love of paper, embellishments and preserving your memories all while being creative!
Over the years, I have had the honor and pleasure of working with several sketch/challenge, manufacturer and kit club design teams, and have had my layouts published in magazines and books. I have been blessed to design for Pebbles, Cocoa Daisy, Simple Stories, Just Nick, Stuck?! Sketches, Creative Scrappers, Scrapbook Generation, Imaginisce, The Twinery and Coordinations. I have been published in Scrapbook & Cards Today, Create, Creating Keepsakes, Cards, Scrapbook Trends and various online publications. I presently design for Cocoa Daisy and SpiegelMom Scraps.

CHRISTINE MEYER, Doubleshot Kit Designer & Process Video Designer
|
I'm Christine Meyer and I'm so delighted to be joining The ScrapRoom team!
I grew up in Los Angeles and moved to Austin, Texas for college. I met my husband there and have moved several times with him as he follows God's call to serve as a Pastor. We moved to Ohio about 18 months ago and love it here. I love to do Paper Crafting in just about any form and especially love to use it to document memories of my four kids!
I am currently on the Design Teams for Paper House Productions, SRM Stickers, and Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L. I am blessed to stay at home with my kids and manage their education! Life keeps me busy but I love every minute of it! Paper crafting provides some much needed downtime to help slow down that busy life! In addition to paper crafting, I'm an avid distance bike rider. When the weather is right, it can be a tough call between crafts and getting out on a trail :). I once read that you need a hobby that makes you happy (paper crafts) and one that makes you healthy (biking) - I'm thankful to have some fun things to do with my downtime!

| Hi, I'm Nicole and I am so excited to be joining the Scraproom Design Team. I have been scrapbooking since 2004 and sharing all things scrappy on YouTube since 2013. I love challenging myself to use supplies in different ways, pull older items to mix with new and join in with various online challenges as well. I enjoy bouncing between single and double page layouts with an emphasis on how many photos can I include and still have a balance layout. I hope to help bring inspiration to The ScrapRoom kits and am thrilled to be working with such amazing women! YouTube Channel: ColieBing |

EMILEY STIENBRUEGGE, Designer
|
Hi! My name is Emiley Steinbruegge and I am so excited to be joining the Scraproom Design Team! I started scrapbooking almost 20 years ago when my cousin introduced me to Creative Memories at a family gathering. I was hooked from the word go! I have always loved pictures and being creative, so scrapbooking was a perfect fit for me. 10 years ago, I decided to get rid of almost all of my supplies (yikes!) and switched to digital scrapbooking. But that didn’t last long…I loved digital (and I still use it for some projects) but for me, there is nothing like real paper! When I discovered the wonderful world of YouTube scrapbookers and was introduced to so many wonderful creators, new techniques, designers, companies, clubs, and products, it completely re-sparked my love of paper scrapbooking! I create almost exclusively two page layouts (because I take way too many pictures) and I love using bright colors and fun patterns.
I have 5 kids (ages 16, 14, 13, 6, and 5), an amazing husband, and an adorable (but crazy) dog. You can find me on Instagram at one_scrappy_mama and Facebook at OneScrappyMama |

THERESA NIEHOFF, Card Kit Designer
|
| Hi everyone, it’s me Theresa! I am so excited to be joining the design team at TSR! I met my husband in elementary school when we were 12. We’ve now been married for 27 years and we have three children (ages 16, 20 and 23) and two rescue terriers. Originally from Southern California, we moved to Las Vegas in 2017. As a family we LOVE to travel and have been to Mexico, Italy, England, France, Ireland, Whales, Belgium, The Netherlands and Spain. I’ve been scrappin’ since the 80’s... that's when my love affair with paper began. I remember going to the Hallmark store with my mom and she would give me a dollar and let me choose a few different sheets of loose stationary. Truth be told I am a paper hoarder and I still have some of those sheets! Although I enjoy all forms of paper crafting, my main passion is card making and I look forward to sharing my ideas with you. When I’m not in my craft room I am busy running our Lazertag Family Fun Canter in So Cal or checking in on our Escape Room in Vegas. |

LORI STROUP, Shots of Life Kit Designer
|
Hello! My name is Lori Stroup and I am thrilled to be joining The ScrapRoom design team! I live in a small town in SW Missouri with my husband of 30 years. We have 3 kids (29, 21, 19) and a granddaughter (5) who just started kindergarten this year. My family is my favorite thing to scrap. I started scrapbooking in 1998 when my sister bought me a Creating Keepsakes magazine. I fell in love with all the pretty paper and stickers and I haven't looked back since.
Along with scrapping traditionally, I also love to do Project Life, work in my Traveler's Notebook, and card making. I started Project Life in 2014 after our granddaughter was born and I wanted a way to document all of her firsts. I love that with Project Life you can document all those little stories of daily life that don't necessarily need a traditional 12x12 layout to be told.
