Question

I know this isn't probably the best group to post this in, but I'm running out of ideas here...

I am looking to find out how to create raised stickers or even the 3D Gel type stickers... or even the plastic covered "puffy" type stickers. I can't seem to find ANY information on how to make them... If I wanted to BUY some there's about a million places to buy pre-made little stickers like that but I'm wanting full page type stickers with my own designs and such on them.

Any information at all would be helpful.

Thanks! Kanati

You can dry emboss the design and fill the back with dimensional glue so that it won't cave in.JanetDebbie Hamann wrote:

Local hobby lobby didn't have much in the way of what was suggested, but I did find some UTEE (ultra thick embossing enamel) and a heat gun. Now I'm trying to figure out what good the embossing heat gun is supposed to do to a powder it blows away before getting hot enough to actually emboss anything. :)

If you do the project with waterproof ink, you could give it a flexible raised effect with Elmer's Glue. It's kind of a low tech approach, but it might work.

Good Luck, Erin-Joi
