DIY Sticker Experiment

I've been doing general cleaning/tidying/donating things around my apartment little by little. I found an envelope shoved in a misc shoebox that was from my sister's save the dates for her wedding. She came over one afternoon and we printed the address labels on my laser printer on clear label sticker paper. So then I remembered... I can print on clear paper.

There are sticker accents that I was wanting to find for my journal and realized I can try to DIY it myself! I used some freebie ephemera printables and edited/collaged to make a black and white version to print on silhouette's clear sticker paper.

I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out - it's close to my original vision! I love how you can layer transparent stickers, it just looks so cute.

I circle punched some pages from furniture vendor catalogs I have been holding onto.

The other stickers! So excited to use them. The top few are handcut into blobs, because sticker paper shouldn't be cut on paper punches. I have four that got messed up but I think I'll still be able to use them after cutting off the destroyed parts.

Overall I think this experiment was a success.

For this sticker paper I'll stick to rectangle or blob shapes that I physically cut out. I'm also looking at the possibilities of getting a silhouette or cricut to make more of my own stickers but will hold off on that!! For now as an alternative, I ended up ordering some clear round sticker labels for future print outs.
