3x3 inch Sticker Printing
Custom full-color 3x3 inch sticker printing is available on glossy and uncoated paper options. Stickers are cut individually to size and do not come on a roll or sheet. Stickers have a pre-cut crack-and-peel backing for easy removal.
Do not apply paper stickers to already frozen materials. For safety, paper stickers should not be in direct contact with food.
Stickers are paper-based and are intended for indoor use only!
Recommendation: For a vibrant and smooth, shiny color look, we recommend our glossy stickers. If you need to write on your stickers, we suggest going with uncoated stickers, as it is impossible to write on glossy stickers.
A smooth glossy coated surface that makes colors very vibrant and shiny. You cannot write on gloss coating finish. Cut to size, crack-and-peel style stickers have a pre-cut backing for easy removal.
Best for writing! Since this material is uncoated, it’s easy to write on. Cut-to-size, crack-and-peel style stickers feature a pre-cut backing for easy removal.
Templates: Download the template and open it in your design program. The template is correctly sized with the proper resolution and color mode. Do not resize it. Use the template as a guide while designing. Once you're finished, delete the template layer and save your final artwork without the template guidelines or instructions.
Be sure to save two versions of your file:
• One editable version you can modify later
• One flattened version to send us for printing
To reduce file size, save your print-ready file in .jpg format. If you choose a different format, make sure all layers are flattened before submitting.

--- Safe Zone: All text, images, logos, etc., need to stay inside the blue line. Anything left outside the blue line may be cut off.
--- Cutting Zone: The product will be cut approximately along this area and shows the final size. Please allow extra space for cutting tolerance around your prints. We recommend no borders due to shifting in the cutting process, borders may appear uneven.
--- Bleed Zone: To avoid white edges on your prints, ensure that the background images or colors extend all the way to the outer edge of the designated black line, known as the bleed. The bleed is the extra background that will be trimmed off after printing, allowing for a clean, edge-to-edge finish.
REMINDER!
- Please send artwork without blue, pink, and black guidelines.
- No crop marks.
- Zoom in to 100% to check your resolution quality. Your artwork will print as sharp as it looks at 100% zoom.
- If you send files as .EPS, .PDF, or .AI, all texts should be converted to outline.
- If using Photoshop, flatten your image and save it as a JPG or PDF. This will prevent fonts from converting to defaults.
