Custom made stickers are a lot of fun to make and display for others to see, but only if they are designed well. As long as you are using a high quality printing service, the product you will ultimately receive and how well you ultimately like the end result will come down to your decisions in making the design.
The following tips should help you create effective, eye-catching custom made stickers that deliver the message you want in a clear, pleasing manner.
Colors
There is a reason you don't see very many pastel colored bumper stickers riding around the world. Light colors are hard to see on a moving vehicle or from a distance, especially if there are no bright colors forcing the lighter accents to stand out.
You want to pick bright, bold colors that command attention and are easy to see. Also, try to select colors that create that "pop" off the bumper when combined. We are talking about one bold color combined with a background color that emphasizes the first.
Some commonly used color combinations are black and red and black and white. Black is actually a good background color for any bold color you want to use, including hot pink, green, or dark blues.
Precision
Custom made stickers have to be very precise with what they say. The more words you have on the sticker, the smaller each word is going to have to be. The smaller the font, the harder it is going to be for others to read what you have to say.
Some sayings will take more words than others, but try to condense what you have to say into as few words as possible. This actually will make the words more powerful and thought evoking in most cases.
There is no reason to use 20 words if you can get to the same place in 8. The shorter your slogan the more powerful it will be, and the easier it will be for others to read from a distance.
Graphics
Most custom made stickers will just use words with an eye catching color scheme, but you can use graphics if you have a really short slogan that leaves lots of blank room. In most cases you will have to come up with this image or pattern design on your own, so make sure it is something that creates interest and appeal without distracting from your message.
The worst thing you can do to your custom made stickers is make them too busy or crowded. Stick with eye-popping colors and a concise, effective slogan unless there is adequate room for a small image.
