Simply enter the size of your sticker, choose your shape, pick the quantity you'd like and upload your artwork. It's that easy...

Made from high-quality, wood-free paper crafted from 95% sugarcane fibre and 5% hemp and linen, these stickers are completely plastic-free, vegan, and 100% compostable. Printed with vegan inks, they’re an eco-friendly alternative that still looks and feels premium.

Once you’re done with them, just pop them in your food waste bin, and they’ll naturally break down within 12 weeks. They’ve got a smooth matte finish and a brilliant white base that makes your artwork look sharp and professional. The medium-strength adhesive grips well to most surfaces, making them ideal for indoor use ,perfect for labels, packaging, or eco-conscious branding.

Preparing Your Artwork for Sticker Printing

Want your stickers to come out looking proper? Here’s what we need from you when you send over your artwork:

1. Size it right

Set your file to the exact finished size of your sticker (e.g. 7.5cm x 7.5cm).

2. Resolution

Go with 300 DPI. Anything lower will look soft or pixelated once printed.

3. Colour mode

Work in CMYK. RGB is for screens, not print, so colours won’t match properly otherwise.

4. Bleed

Add at least 3mm bleed on all sides. This stops any unwanted white edges after trimming.

5. Safe zone

Keep text, logos and anything important at least 3mm inside the cut line, so nothing gets chopped off.

6. Fonts

Convert all text to outlines/curves. That way we don’t need your font files.

7. File formats

We accept:

Vector files (AI, PDF, EPS) – best for logos and graphics

High-res raster files (PSD, TIFF, JPEG, PNG with transparency) – good for photos or detailed designs

8. Cut line (for custom shapes)

If you want a custom die-cut shape, add a separate cut line layer. Mark it in 100% magenta or use our templates.

9. Double check before sending

Make sure:

- Spelling is correct

- Colours are in CMYK

- Images still look sharp when zoomed in

10. Sending files

Send us a PDF, AI, or EPS with fonts outlined and layers intact. For simpler shapes, a high-res PNG works too.
