SOME VIDEO EDITS! You do not need to change to CMYK if you are printing at home! You typically convert to CMYK for more industrial printers if you were sending them to a company to manufacture them for you. I find with my home printer, printing in RGB is wayyyy clearer and yields a better result.
Big thank you to Kofi for sponsoring this video! I can't recommend using their platform enough if you are a beginner shop owner like myself!
Watch @JelArts 's How I Make Stickers • How to Make Stickers From Home // Tut... for another great resource on sticker making!
In this video I go over my design and production process for making my very own stickers from home! I cover my design tips, my supplies, and my marketing strategies to launch your designs and build an income stream for your art career. Designing stickers and starting my art shop this year has gotten me closer to going fulltime with my art, and I want to show that you can do it too.
Once again thank you to everyone who has purchase from my shop, joined my Kofi memberships, and likes and comments on my content!
