White or black border? How to choose
Every die-cut sticker has a thin border where we cut, about 2 mm wide. You can choose white or black, and it makes a bigger difference than you'd think.
When to go white
- Your design has lots of dark colours or a dark outline.
- The sticker is going on a dark surface, like a black laptop or bottle.
- You want that classic, clean sticker look.
When to go black
- Your design is light or pastel, and a white edge would blend in.
- Your artwork already has a bold black outline, so the border becomes part of the design.
- The sticker is going on a light surface.
