Journalling: Summer to Autumn with Sticker Moods

We have a family sticker box. We also have sticker tins in our rooms. Everyone has a journal. Voila! Express, when you like, how you like. Today was breezy. I actually got to open our back windows, and memories of a special summer mood whooshed in. We did laundry and lessons. We wrote stories and read. Air. Openness. Beauty of the soul…endless rooms to explore.

One of my upcoming projects is a collection of unique Amor Milagre book illustration stickers. It will grow each season along with my current wax seal designs, art prints, bookshop, and stationery. We love stickers, so this will be extra special to use our very own artwork with our daily journals.

Amor Milagre Mini will have fun with this medium as an ongoing homeschool project. This week, we’re scanning piles of beautiful original artwork. I save everything. We just sorted and filed all of the new paintings. It’s quite the library to choose from so I’m excited to work on this collection.

Do you practice calligraphy? Do you enjoy the simple joy of stickers? Do you keep albums or scrapbooks? What kind of art, stories, days, and weather do you love dearly? I like to use stickers as gentle inspirational reminders. View some of our daily goals below.

Happy expressing life! Love, ~ Amor Milagre

These stickers were collected from various shops over the years… We like cosy interiors, baking, and garden ones the best. I can’t wait to introduce my own!

Happy Birthday! The Gift of Gift Giving

The Gift of Gift Giving at Amor Milagre, Birthday Presents, Gift Shop

That special feeling when you’ve found just the right gift for a Dear One…mmm…just delicious!

Sometimes in life you are unable to find dream gifts, or you are unable to afford them. It’s never too late! Today, I am wrapping up something that I wish we had found several years ago, but the thrill is still the same in the giving of this gift. I am very happy that we are finished with our home and garden renovations because now we have time to celebrate every day, every drawer, every plank, and every outlet cover. Teddy bears, ribbons, and pink! That sums us up right now.

I provide personalized gifts in my shop, so please take a gander and see what sparks a gifting notion for you. Happy Birthdays! Love, ~ Amor Milagre

A Cosy Morning of Editing & Illustrating Novels

Atelier Amor Milagre, Novel Editing Day, Office Interior Design, Library Renovation — Atelier Amor Milagre, Novel Editing & Illustrating Day, Office Interior Design, Library Renovation

July is the month when we have a mini winter holiday, snuggle up to read frosty stories, wrap up gifts for December, and edit & illustrate sweet snowy tales in our finished library.

❄️ Teacups and quiet moments… Love, ~Amor Milagre

The Illustrated Self-Health Novelette Series will begin to release in 2026, one love-packed volume at a time.

My growing book illustration collection (stationery and fine art prints) for each novelette will be available to shop ahead of the paperback volumes & audiobook releases. As there are so many, I prefer to list them as they are completed. These will soon join the Leona novel and children’s book artwork. I’m painting with watercolours on aged deckled-edge papers and with oil on canvas. (FSC) There are also charcoal and fine nib ink renderings, too. I go with what the character tells me they’re most like.

Which characters and places speak to you?

Oil Painting: Pink Peony & June Rose Cottage Garden

Amor Milagre Pink Peony Oil Painting, June Flowers Rose Cottage Garden

It’s June. The peonies, salvia, lavender, irises, clovers, lupines, foxgloves, dogwood, and daisies are blooming. This morning, I bunny-hopped out to catch a pink peony. I’d rather she stay snug in her bed, but due to neighbour pollution I cannot paint her out there, so in she came before her petals fell in the afternoon rainfall. Her portrait will now live forever in my shop. The original painting, archival art prints, and stationery cards are available today! A matching Flower Photography art print will accompany this piece soon. Remember, we all share this air, and we can all enjoy nature’s ever-art.

Happy Summer! Love, Amor Milagre

My favourite way to paint is with plants because the scene keeps refreshing itself each moment.

So many petals and shapes…hypnotic…

In the Works: New Art, Books, Stationery, & Design

Atelier Amor Milagre: Art, Books, Stationery, Interior Design, Organic Gardening & Kitchen. This interior is our library-atelier-office-homeschool room. We love painting with watercolours in here.

Now that our Rose Cottage renovations are winding down, I am able to catch up on finishing endless books, illustrations, interior design before & afters, stationery, and other fun projects to add to my shop.

A summer wax seal sticker and notecard set will release soon. New warm-weather inspired packaging will be dressing your orders beginning this month. I am excited about my new Autumn-Halloween stationery collection! The cookbook will probably release next winter. The newly illustrated Vol.I of The Love Letter Diaries, Leona’s Homecoming novels 1-4 will release this summer. I am mulling over a fresh film series to begin over the winter, but first the novelettes and children’s books draw my attention.

At the moment, we’re enduring that certain sting of updating the computers and printers. If you could just design them to last, please…that would be helpful and sustainable. The prices are not kind, but the worst part is testing out the new settings…just trying to capture the correct colours. I am most terrible particular about colours and sizes. And, why not? Painting in the desired colours and scope means something. If you’ve ever seen the work of an old master sold as art prints, with your pick of five different lights and shades, cropped until confusing, then you’ll know that those sellers have not visited the original, assessed what the faded level of colour is, and configured their senseless printers to best represent this aging. Every detail the artist includes matters, and as a whole this makes up the symbolic story of the composition.

Homemade Tortilla, Organic Non- GMO, Vegan, Amor Milagre Kitchen

This weekend, we had a quick bite…a fresh hot tortilla and roasted pepper hummus. It was comforting after a nice long walk. Oxygen health breathes new ideas, stories, and leaves space to work on aging ones before they are lost to the stacks of notebooks in the bookcases.

There is much to do on this calming cleaning day, so I’m off now, riding the tickly bristles of my golden brush across the page. All things bewitching, coming soon. Love, ~Amor Milagre
