Do you want to get creative with your planner sessions and explore the world of printable planner stickers? If so, I’m here with a few tips to guide you along the way. Let’s get started!
Planning isn’t always a party, but adding stickers into the mix can really shake things up. I just love finding ways to make planning fun, and planner accessories are a great place to start.
When I discovered printable planner stickers, I instantly fell in love! It’s just amazing how you can pick out an awesome sticker design and print the kit on the same day.
Having beautiful stickers added to my planner pages gives me a surprising amount of motivation to fill it all in. If you’re looking for an easy and fun way to decorate your planner, printable planner stickers are definitely for you!
So, what are printable planner stickers?
Printable planner stickers are digital sticker files you can find in online stores like Etsy, or for free on different websites and blogs.
When you purchase a kit, you’ll receive a downloadable file, usually in PDF, JPG, or PNG format. Some stickers come in special file formats that are used with cutting machines, such as the Silhouette or the Cricut.
You can access your new stickers right away and start printing, and you can save the file on your computer forever, so you can print as many stickers as you want, whenever you want.
Sounds good, right? I definitely love how easy it is to use printable planner stickers. A sensational planner spread is just a download away!
Printable planner stickers come in a large array of styles, sizes and colors. The theme of a kit could be a season or holiday, like Spring or St. Patrick’s Day, and can include different shapes and sizes to fit your scheduling needs. You can mark off special days or have a specific color for certain days.
Wanna add in a bouquet of flowers for Mother’s Day or some party hats for a birthday celebration? Go for it! It’s all about having fun and decorating just the way you like it.
Get fancy with it or use simple labels and headers in your schedule. From planning a day out with family to your study notes for the new semester, the possibilities are endless.
What kind of paper do I need?
Printing digital stickers is simple because you have several different paper options. When you’re first getting started, you can print on your regular copy paper and use double-sided tape, a glue stick, adhesive run, or Create-A- Sticker Xyron machine to apply adhesive to the back of your paper. As long as your paper tray is stocked, you can start printing stickers today!
Another option you have is to use sticker paper, or label paper, in full page A4 or letter size. This paper comes in different finishes, like matte, glossy, and vinyl.
No matter what you choose, make sure that the paper is compatible with your printer type, whether it’s inkjet or laser. I recommend Avery and Online Labels.
Feel free to try out different paper types and finishes until you find what you like best. That’s the joy of printable planner stickers, you can play with materials until you get the look just right for your planner.
These stickers can also be used with digital planners and therefore, don’t always need to be printed out. You can even get creative with your planner pages by importing different backgrounds and using apps like the Procreate app and the GoodNotes app.
How do I cut my printable planner stickers?
You can choose to cut your stickers by hand or with a cutting machine. If you’re new to printable stickers or you don’t have a cutting machine, use scissors, an X-acto knife, or a Gyro-Cut tool to cut out your beautiful new designs.
If you’re looking for a machine, I recommend Silhouette or Cricut. Both are great, easy-to-use options, and they’re ideal for getting your designs cut easily. In my shop, I offer digital files for both machines, making cutting a breeze!
Will the stickers fit my planner?
The short answer is yes! Printable planner stickers are made to fit a variety of different planner formats. Sticker designers like myself make kits to fit different brands like Erin Condren, Happy Planner, Recollections, and many more.
Remember, if the stickers are too big, you can try trimming the edges as long as the design won’t be ruined. Decorative and functional stickers are often sized to fit most planners, and they also look great in bullet journals. It’s also okay to scale down or up in size before printing.
It’s really simple, but if you need any help, let me know. Comment any questions that you have right here or reach out on my social links.
