Meet Julie McGuffee
Scrapbook Memories host Julie McGuffee has been scrapbooking for over 40 years. She received her own camera at age 11 and has been hooked on photography ever since. Her father served in the RAF in the early 40s and documented the years he spent in the Middle East through the many photographs he took. Julie loved looking through the albums he put together and, following his example, placed her own photos in albums. "We didnt have the wide range of products available for todays scrapbooker," Julie tells us, "but my dad decorated and titled his pages and handwrote captions for his photos. To me they were, and still are, the most beautiful scrapbook pages."

Originally from England, Julie has lived in the US for over 25 years with her husband, two children and a succession of dogs. She is also a very talented decorative painter and all-round crafter and has worked in the Arts & Crafts industry professionally since 1991. She has authored over 30 "how-to" arts and crafts and decorative painting books and is a regular columnist for Craftworks magazine. Her monthly Creative Lettering column, which she was invited write in 1997, ran for over four years.

In 1996, Julie and fellow designer Jean Kievlan formed their own design services company. When scrapbooking started to gain momentum they worked closely with manufacturers to develop and promote innovative product for this new and exciting market. Julie was also a host of More Than Memories for 4 years, a regular guest on Hands-On Crafts for Kids which also airs on PBS, A.C. Mooress Crafters Corner, QVC and the guest craft expert on "At Home Live with Chuck & Jennie" which airs on the Family Net channel. Julie is also a regular contributor to the scrapbooking section of Michaels.com.
