What are custom stickers?

In graphic design, stickers are design elements that you can create by cutting or editing other images. It’s basically taking a cutout of one image that you can apply to another design, very much like how you’d add a sticker to a piece of paper in school.

Within Picsart, there are two types of Stickers: free and premium. Free Stickers are often community-created, meaning that other users have created these Stickers and chosen to share them with the Picsart community to also use in their edits. The Picsart design team also releases free Sticker packs too, so there’s never a lack of Stickers to add to your edits. Premium Stickers are created by our in-house team of designers and are available for Picsart Gold users only.

After learning how to make Stickers on Picsart, you’ll find that it’s one of the easiest ways to make your graphic designs stand out.
