Identity Designer

How to complete Identity Designer

Designing your own stickers turns a drawing into a small physical product you can stick anywhere or hand out. The skill spans both the artwork and the production step: getting a clean cut-line and a printable file, whether you draw on paper or a tablet.

1. Sketch a simple, bold design with clear outlines that read well at two inches wide
2. Finalize the art digitally or scan your traditional drawing at high resolution
3. Add a slight outline or padding around the shape to create a clean cut margin
4. Send to a sticker print service, or print on sticker paper and cut by hand or with a cutting machine
5. Test-peel one and check the adhesive and color before making a full batch

Tips

• Keep important details away from the edges so the cut never clips them
• Transparent backgrounds need a white underbase layer or colors print dull
• Order or print a small proof first to catch sizing and color surprises

What counts as done

You hold at least one finished, peelable sticker made from your own design.
