Step 1 of 10

Drop in your art

Hit Upload your art and pick your logo, drawing or photo. PNG, JPG, WebP or PDF all work, and your sticker shows up right away. No waiting around.

Pro tipBigger files print sharper. Aim for at least 1000 pixels on the long side. A PNG with a see-through background gives you the cleanest cut.

Step 2 of 10

Keep it or lose the background

Your sticker pops up with a live preview. Choose Keep My Background to print your picture exactly as is, or Remove My Background to cut out just your design.

Pro tipSee "Already transparent"? You are good to go, just hit Next. Logos on a plain solid color come out cleanest when you remove the background.

Step 3 of 10

Pick your cut

Die-cut means the sticker and its backing follow the outline of your design. Kiss-cut peels off a larger backing sheet. Then choose the shape that follows your art.

Pro tipFor most designs, pick Contour. It follows the outline of your artwork, so you get a sticker shaped like your design, not a plain box.

Border size and color

The border is the colored edge around your art. Slide the width bigger or smaller, or tap Thin, Medium or Thick. Then pick White, Black, a Custom color or a Gradient.

Pro tipWhite is the classic sticker look. Black makes bright art pop. A gradient is a fun way to match your brand colors.

Tick Add outer border to wrap a second ring of color around the first. Pick its color and width just like the first one.
