Art journaling is an excellent introduction to craftivism. Craft + Activism = Craftivism. Craftivism is a way for you to express yourself in a thoughtful and gentle way. While creating your art journal you might think about the images and their personal meaning. Craftivism can be done in addition to traditional methods of protest and demonstration, or on its own. It can be quiet and solitary or more vocal and with others. The most common themes in this art book series are the decades surrounding the Suffragette era of the late 1800s and early 1900s. This era was a time of strong women building a foundation for equal rights for the decades that followed. These decades created attention for change and brought civil rights issued into light. Many of these issues are still being debated today. Art Journaling as a form of craftivism is a creative way to bring past and current issues together and potentially make much needed positive change. Nature themes are also explored in the form of floral, animals, botanicals, and conservation. Joyful activities such as journaling and paper arts can feel like active meditation creating calm, making room for contemplation.

Born in the colourful, Celtic, Montreal neighbourhood of Griffintown, and educated in Montreal, New York, Winnipeg, Vancouver, and Toronto, helped Sandra develop her eclectic style. Her textile, fiber, and paper arts and courses include; eco-printing, natural rust dyeing, quilting, embroidery, weaving, spinning, sewing, felting, crochet, knitting, junk journals, altered books, contemporary scrapbooking, and digital paper art. Fueled by the fast-fashion rebellion, visible mending and craftivism, Sandra's zero-waste philosophy results in ethically made and thoughtfully re-fashioned textile, fibre, and paper art. Sandra's life and art was deeply affected by the death of her daughter, Emily, on January 1st, 2021 due to complications from her May 2019 heart transplant.
