Introducing July 2025 Guest Designer - Penny Grimsley

Hello ScrapRoom Friends! 
We are happy to announce our
July 2025 Guest Designer
Penny Grimsley

I’ve been scrapbooking since 1994—back when stickers were flat and photos had rounded corners! Since then, I’ve filled over 100 albums with everyday moments and magical memories. I’ve designed for We Create magazine and Scrapbook Generation’s Sketch Support blog. My background includes 24 years in corporate accounting, a rewarding chapter as a stay-at-home mom, and leading a $1 million sales team as a Creative Memories Consultant for 9 years. 


These days, my favorite place to be is surrounded by paper, photos, and a good story to tell. I approach each layout with creative joy, an eye for detail, and a deep love for storytelling through design. I’m proud to be married for 38 years to my college sweetheart, and together we’ve raised two amazing sons. These days I share my craft space with our two Frenchies, Sophie and Coco. Our sweet life is a balance of traveling to make memories — and staying home to scrap them.

Penny truly knocked it out of the park with the July Flavors of the Month Kit!

Each page is a perfect example of how to stretch your supplies while still creating something unique and eye-catching. Take a look at a few of her layouts here:
