Personalize your stickers by uploading your design. For high-quality printing, we recommend using HD images (300dpi).
The stickers are available in a 3.8 cm diameter and come in sheets of 48. Items placed in the red zone will not be printed.
All our stickers are printed in France in our Parisian workshop using FSC® certified creative paper from our collection.

Do you check our designs before printing?
Each design is carefully checked by our graphic design team.
When personalizing your invitation, our graphic design team systematically checks your design before printing, and also performs a check during the printing process to guarantee optimal results.
If you wish, you can receive a digital proof (BAT - Bon à tirer) before production begins. Simply request it.
We recommend ordering a sample copy delivered on an A4 sheet if you have any doubts about your layout.
For any specific layout, correction, or in-depth review requests, you can use the text box labeled "Leave a message or instructions for our graphic designer" on the customization page. Our team will take each of your instructions into account before final approval.
Create your print file
- Final format: Exact size of the document once cut
- Bleed: An area extending beyond the final size (4 mm on each side) to avoid white borders; this part will be trimmed after printing. It is represented in red on our configurator.
- Safety zone: Inner margin (approximately 5 mm) in which no text or important elements should be placed
- Front / Back: Front = first side / Back = second side of the printed document
2. Good design practices
To do:
- Extend colored backgrounds, photos, or graphic elements to the bleed area.
- Use high-resolution images (300 dpi)
To avoid:
- Placing text too close to the edges
- Forgetting to extend a colored background to the edge of the bleed area
- Export in low quality
Recommended format: High-quality PDF
- Enable the following options:
- Bleed fund
- Crop marks
Recommended color profile: CMYK
