đ„ François Albertâs âSacresâ Collection: Swear Words with Style
You canât miss François Albertâs loud, proud (and only slightly censored) collection of Quebec swear words turned into bold, hilarious art.
Available as mugs, magnets, and sticker sheets, his punchy illustrations will have you shouting Tabarnak, que c'est beau!Â
Perfect as a gift for your sassiest friends... or your uncle who always ends up swearing at the BBQ!

đȘ Cara Carminaâs âDĂ©panneurâ Illustration: A Little Piece of Home
You canât celebrate Saint-Jean without paying a visit, at least in spirit, to the corner store that sells popsicles and cold beer late into the evening.
Cara Carminaâs colourful and heartfelt illustration pays tribute to this beloved staple of Quebec life.
Available as a greeting card and a print, this âdĂ©panneurâ is always open⊠in your heart!Â

đđ ChloĂ© Baillargeonâs Hockey Cat: Go Habs Go!
Whatâs more QuĂ©bĂ©cois than a cat dressed as a Montreal Canadiens player?
The talented ChloĂ© Baillargeon has created an irresistible character â a sporty feline ready to hit the ice and win your heart.
Available as a card and a mug, itâs the purr-fect combo for both hockey lovers and cat fans.
đ A Sweet, Poetic Illustration of Montreal
For city lovers, Chloé also offers a lovely, gentle portrait of Montreal, full of charm, colour, and character.
Stick it on your fridge (with the magnet), or sip your morning coffee from the matching mug. Either way, itâs a perfect tribute to our beloved city in blue and white.

đŠ« AmĂ©lie Legaultâs Local Animals: Cute, Funny, and Proudly QuĂ©bĂ©cois
At Sardines Studio, we also celebrate our local wildlife with the irresistibly adorable (and sometimes athletic!) creatures illustrated by Amélie Legault. From a beaver on a bike to a squirrel glued to its phone, and from mischievous raccoons to a gentle-eyed moose, these characters pay tribute to the furry friends that make Quebec so special.
Available as art prints, greeting cards, magnets, and more, they add a sweet and humorous touch to any Saint-Jean celebration.
Â
đ Local Gifts with a Big Personality
Whether youâre giving or treating yourself, our made-in-Quebec creations are designed to make people smile, warm the heart, and celebrate our unique culture with humour and pride.
So raise your flag, light some fireworks (or candles), and drop by our online shop or one of our local retailers to prepare for a Saint-Jean thatâs as festive as it is beautifully illustrated!
đš Long live fun, colourful, illustrated Quebec!
