Design Team Closeup: Stephanie Eaken and Elodie Goossens

Published on November 7, 2014 by TaniesaLeave a comment

Hi Crafty Friends,

Happy Friday! We’re back with two more Designer close ups today!

Stephanie Eaken

You can find Stephanie’s blog HERE.

Hi! My name is Stephanie Eaken & I am a 41 year old stay at home mom. My daughter is 11 & is in her first year of middle school (so far, so good!) & my son is a 7 year old second grader. We live in a suburb of Richmond, VA with my husband of 15 years. Drew & I met in my senior year of high school & have been together since!! We also have two dogs that we all adore & love spending time outside with.

I began scrapbooking (in the modern terms) about 11 years ago when my oldest was a baby. I have always dabbled in arts & crafts & used to love collecting momentos as a child to add to “my books”. My style is what I describe as casual-eclectic. I like to try new techniques & play around with the latest trends. I am also on the design team for Stuck On U Sketches. You can follow my blog at www.stephanie-eaken.blogspot.com.

I am thrilled to be on the team here at The Crafty Pickle and am so excited to create with the wonderful products they have to offer!!

Elodie Goossens

You can find Elodie’s blog HERE.

My name is Elodie, I’m French but I live in Belgium since 8 years , I’m 38 years old.I am married to a wonderful man and we have just had an adorable baby boy in august.

I’m nurse and I really enjoy my job!

I’ve been scrapping for around 6 years now creating mainly layouts and cards, but also love mini-albums and home decor.I love playing with stamps, stencils, inks and Chipboard.

I like shabby chic/vintage ,mixed media, free scrapbooking…I think that i’m scrap addicted !!!

I have the opportunity to liven up workshops and crop in Belgium and France.

Scrapping is my outlet, what I do for fun & I just love it!

Aren’t they adorable? You will be seeing some pretty amazing stuff from these two, I just know it!

Have a great weekend!

Happy Crafting!
