Hi, I’m Carrie! I’m a Dallas-area author, blogger, and creator passionate about helping people live more organized, intentional, and joy-filled lives. Welcome to my corner of the internet, where I share tons of free tools to help you live a more inspired life.
Over the years, I’ve transformed my love for creativity and planning into a career I love. I am a published author (my book is called Make Anything Happen: A Creative Guide to Vision Boards, Goal Setting, and Achieving the Life of Your Dreams, and it’s all about creating vision boards, setting goals, and following through). In addition to running CarrieElle.com, I have an e-commerce site and a thriving Etsy store and have designed Amazon’s Choice, best-selling paper products on Amazon.
I am married to Charles, who I met at a blackjack table in Las Vegas when we were 21 years old (what happens in Vegas does not always stay in Vegas!). Today we have two teenagers, three horses, and two dogs. Originally from San Diego, I’ve been in Texas for 20+ years. I love horses, books (I love, love, love books!), and iced tea (unsweet!). When I’m not working, I’m volunteering at Texas Therapeutic Riding Center, where I serve on the board of directors.
Here’s how we can work together:
I’ve been active in the digital content space for almost 20 years now (it all started with Blogger – if you know, you know!). I started Carrie Elle in 2012. I am available for contract work.
I have taught thousands of people around the country how to make vision boards, and I am available for vision board parties and workshops in the Dallas area (not in Dallas? That’s okay! I can travel for corporate events, conferences, or workshops).
I teach social media and design workshops for small businesses. These events are a fantastic way to spark creativity, set goals, or learn how to navigate the ever-changing digital space we often spend so much time in. Your team will walk away with action items, ideas, and inspiration to improve your digital presence.
I am a published author who is available for freelance projects, including writing and some photography (I photographed almost everything you see on the blog, and everything in my book). I am happy to share samples of stories I have written and photographed for brands.
I’m easy to reach! Email me at carrie@carrieelle.com.

Hi Carrie! Thanks for your wonderful printables. I am on my way to organize myself this weekend. At least on paper. I tried signing up to your newsletter in two different places and it says “unathorized” after I try to subscribe. Can you manually add me? Rose, spunkybee@hotmail.ca
Maybe you can delete this comment after you see it hopefully.
Is it possible to link the 30 day meal challenge and budget challenge? I’m not finding the links to either on your page. Looks like there is an error? Thanks!
