About E.Hopkins Creative
Hi, I’m Ellen.
I’m a Squarespace and Canva designer partnering with entrepreneurs, ministries, and small businesses to create clean, strategic, and high-converting visual foundations. My work is designed to bring clarity to your message, confidence to your brand, and structure to your online presence—so your marketing actually supports your growth.
With a background in communications and over a decade of hands-on creative experience, I blend thoughtful design with practical strategy to help clients move forward with confidence, not confusion.
My Approach
Good design should do more than look nice—it should remove friction, simplify communication, and support real business goals.
My work is rooted in: Strategy before aesthetics, clarity before creativity, simplicity over overwhelm
Whether I’m building a full Squarespace website or designing scalable Canva templates, my goal is always the same: to create visuals that are not only beautiful, but functional, intentional, and easy to use long after launch.
Clients often describe me as a creative partner, not just a designer—someone who thinks through the “why” as much as the “how.”
My Story
My foundation in design began with a Bachelor’s degree in Communications, followed by a Master’s degree in Counseling Ministries. About 10 years ago, I launched an online ministry, which is where I first immersed myself in Squarespace, Canva, digital marketing, and content strategy.
That blend of ministry, communication, and design naturally led to my role as a Media Director at a church, where I spent years building visual systems for the church website, social media, video, and marketing materials. Alongside that work, I began offering design services on Fiverr as a way to supplement my income and grow my skillset - one that I now utilize not only for our new church plant but also for many other small businesses, coaches, and ministries.
What started as a side venture quickly grew into a thriving design business with dozens of five-star projects, a 4.9-star client rating, and recognition as a Squarespace Circle Gold Member. Today, I am intentionally growing E. Hopkins Creative beyond marketplace platforms to serve clients directly - offering deeper collaboration, long-term support, and greater flexibility for both businesses and agencies.

E. Hopkins Creative is a great fit if you:
Value clean, strategic design over trends alone
Want visuals that support real business goals
Appreciate fast communication and clear processes

See design as a long-term foundation, not a one-off task
Working Together
Whether you’re a business owner or a small agency outsourcing design work, my goal is to make the process smooth, strategic, and reliable.
My process is simple, structured, and collaborative:
You inquire with your goals and scope
We clarify your vision, audience, and needs
I design and build with clear communication throughout
You launch with confidence and continued support options
I may not be the right fit if you:
Are only looking for the lowest possible price
Need instant turnaround without a structured process
Want design with no strategic direction behind it
This clarity helps ensure every project starts from a place of alignment and mutual respect
