Hi everyone!! I hope you liked this vlog ❤️ I just wanted to say thank you to all of you who gave me the tip about peeling the mat and preventing my stickers and sheets from curling, it has worked WONDERS!! Thanks for all of your support, it is so encouraging 😊
Sticker shop owner here too!! A couple tips, extend the sheet margins so you can fit two of the sticker sheets on one page, so you don’t waste so much paper. You can also cut out the sticker sheet with the silhouette machine! It’s a lot easier than using a paper cutter, and lastly, when peeling off the sticker paper off the mat, turn the mat over so that the sticker sheet is facing down, bend the mat lightly as you peel off the sticker sheet, this way is much easier and the sheets won’t curl up 🙂
@@JustSitAndLaugh depends on what silhouette machine you have. I have all original portraits so I use a mat, I know with the newer models you don’t need a mat.
I prefer the type of paper cutter she's using there, i have one, and i have a Cameo 4 with the built in cutter but it's too awkward leaning behind it to cut things. The one here is very easy to use and quicker imo
Your illustrations are so cute. I enjoyed this video so much. My daughter is really getting into sticker making so I've been researching machines for her when I stumbled upon your channel. Will definitely show your work to my daughter as she is interested in opening up her own sticker/stationery shop too.
Thank you so much for being super sweet and for actually taking your time so show us step by step how you do everything!! I’ve seen other cute shops like you, but they never want to share the details with us :((( again; THANK YOU! You have earned a loyal follower! 🤍🤍
Love your style!! You can also draw a box around your sticker sheets in Silhouette studio and have a cut setting 1 higher, and let the portrait cut your sheets for you and then you won’t need the paper cutter. Can’t wait to see what all you come up with!!
I'm sure you've been told this by other comments, but if you take a plain white t-shirt or any Cotton fabric, you can dab it onto your cutting mat to help soften the stickiness. Doesn't damage your mat, and makes it easier to remove your cut images. Also, in case you didn't know, some warm soapy water on your mat will help to clean it when it starts to lose stickiness after uses, and brushing a little Aleens Tack-it-Over-and-Over will restore that stickiness. ☺️
This is so nice, quarantine also forced me to become more serious about my art and I’m planning to open up my own shop. I want to start with prints and stickers. I’m just worried because I’ve seen some not so great videos about Etsy. I hope your experience has been well and your business does well. 😊
Just found your channel & subscribed. Little tip, if you put a box around your design, the machine will cut it out for you. Just use a different line color for the box so you have a 2nd setting for the cut out. Also if you turn the sticker sheet sideways, you can get 2 per page, just adjust the registration marks. Hope this helps.
Congratulations on opening your etsy shop!! I love this vlog it's so relaxing! ❤️ just a tip so that stickers won't curl, peel off the mat away from the sticker instead of the sticker away from the mat so it won't curl you can lay it down flat. ❤️
hiii i just stumbled upon your channel. loved this vlog! little tip for when you're removing the sticker sheet from the cutting mat is to roll the mat away from the sheet instead of the other way around. this way you won't have to struggle with curled paper.
I immediately subbed bcz ur videos are so lovely~ also when removing the stickers from the mat try rolling the mat off instead of the paper to prevent the paper from curling (it’s my dream to open a shop so I’ve been learning hehe)
Hi Blue Citrus, Your stickers look amazing!!!! I Thanks so much for the vlog. It makes so much more clear. I just saw that you have the multi washi tape dispenser. Can i ask where did you get it?
Loved this vlog🧡! Congrats on opening your shop and already having sells. I'm also dreaming of opening one. I got a Portrait 3 for my birthday and love it so much too. An advise to avoid your sticker sheet to curl. Put the sticker sheet + mat facing down your table and remove the silhouette mat holding your sheet instead of removing the sheet of the mat. Maybe you've figured this out already since. Let me now 🤗
Hey, I'm not discouraging or anything but i think you could have used one sticker sheet to make two small ones also you could have folded the tray on which you kept your sheet rather than folding your sticker sheet. I just wanted to suggest.
So underrated huhu can I know where you got the sticker cutter machine from? I keep looking online I cant find the one I want and that machine looks nice and reliable AHAHAHAHA Love the video!
Thank you so much!! I am using the silhouette portrait 2, its so nice and cheaper than some of the cricut models i was looking at before. I got it on amazon actually, Im not sure if there are any left, but cheers and goodluck!! 🥳
Just stumbled across your channel thanks to the algorithm 😊 I’m loving your illustrations and your studio vlog 💞🥰🥰 keep up the amazing work! Looking forward to seeing more videos from you 😍❤️🥰 bye for now 👋🏽 - Marie x p.s New subby! 👋🏽❤️
Hi Kate!! I currently use Procreate, and you can adjust the brush settings by clicking on it. If you set the streamline higher, it will help you get crisper lines 😊
Hello! Your shop is so cute. I also run an Etsy sticker shop but I’m struggling to lower my shipping rates since I am not familiar with shipping letters. I just like to ask what type of stamp you use and I read there’s an Etsy letter option from Pitney Bowes too for .50c. I am just contemplating whether I should have a free shipping option or a less costly one. It might also help with my sales. I currently use rigid mailers and I charge under $3 for shipping. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Hi!! Thanks so much ☺️ Im also in a learning process with shipping and looking into etsy shipping, as their rates are 30% cheaper than USPS. For now, I am weighing each of my letter packages by ounces, and adjusting number of stamps based on the weight. I got the stamps from amazon, and made sure they are forever stamps as those are priority shipping. I hope this helps!! Goodluck on your shop ❤️
Hello! So I saw you might open a small biz or already have one. If you do I want to say good luck you can do it! Also, if you need someone to advertise I can help. I have a smol Instagram account with 50+ followers even though I don't have many posts. If you do want to or have any questions pls email me :). haha sorry if it's random an unexpected :(. email:ashleybuisssness@gmail.com
Dehmel Trixi hi!! I had to do a lot of trial and error with my printer, but if you are doing digital artwork, definitely have the color settings in the program as CMYK, and this will produce the closest color printing, let me know if this works! ☺️
I really want to make my own Etsy shop but I'm curious as to whether I have to print the shipping labels or I can just write the shipping information on the envelope
How do you have a white procreate??? I have a black one, like the background is black and all the buttons i cant find a setting to vhange it to white lol😅
If you go within the wrench icon on a project, open the preferences menu and within there you'll find "light interface" option at the top. I hope this helps!!
I am also a Small Loacal business owner, I make Planner Accessories, Sell Happy Planners & all the Accessories/Planner related stuff! I have been wanting to open an Etsy Shop but I do not have a printer for thr mailing stuff! No computer or tablet only my phone, also not sure how Etsy Works on the percentage they take in total? Any help 🙏 would be greatly appreciated 🙏 🙂
@@bluecitrus4501 I want to be like you. You have a business that I really want to grow also. I'm still 16 that's why I'm asking for questions about stickers cause I don't have any idea. Your my role model btwww❤️ have a great and wonderful day! Hope your business will grow more❤️
Good luck with everything! >.< I love seeing small businesses blossoming! Quick question, where can one look for that same washi tape dispenser? O_o Keep growing and evolving sis!
I have the canon pixma pro, and this is an older version so it does make a lot of noise. I do think that the colors in this printer come out so nice, and definitely would recommend a newer version!!

Wow! You're awesome. The first few words of your message brought tears to my eyes. Glad to know there are people like you in this world. Blessings
You don't need to use a mat at all when you work with sticker paper, actually.
@@JustSitAndLaugh depends on what silhouette machine you have. I have all original portraits so I use a mat, I know with the newer models you don’t need a mat.

Such a nice vibe
Fun to watch! Rotate your sticker page and tighten up the spacing and you’ll get 2 out of each sticker sheet; cuts your materials cost and waste down!

Omg I love your stickers but I recommend that you flatten out your stickers with a heavy book so they don’t bend 💖

Glad I wasn't the only one who thought this. Just seems like such a waste of sticker sheet!
I can't wait for my stickers!! Thank you so much for taking the time to make such pretty things ☺️❤️
Thank you for showing how to do sticker I didn't know it was like that, really interesting. I wish you the best for your business

Hey, I'm not discouraging or anything but i think you could have used one sticker sheet to make two small ones also you could have folded the tray on which you kept your sheet rather than folding your sticker sheet. I just wanted to suggest.
What printer do you use, please? Are you happy with it? :)
My cat will run from places unknown to my office if he hears the printer kick on, LOL
Gorgeous vlog, really enjoyed watching.
Thank you so much 😊
I love your kitty😍
You should curl the mat away from the stickers bc it won’t make your stickers curl
Love your art work 😘. I wonder what camera did u use?
Thank you so much! I use the Sony a6400, it's really great 😊

nice vlog! :D
What app do you use to colour ur stickers?
I just subscribed!!!!!!!!!
Hi there!! I use Procreate 😊

Hello may i ask, what is the settings of the printer should be? I mean, you can print it by photoprint inkjet? Epson matte? Etc... thanks..
Hi!! I use the Canon pixma pro, and it is an inkjet printer. I would recommend inkjet for photo printing, and I print on 110 lb card stock paper!!
Hello my printer from canon print so much darker do you have a Tipp eventually please.? Thx

My cricut isn’t able to cut my stickers as nicely. Did you place white borders around yours before cutting?
Alexis i actually did it all through the silhouette portrait programming, my next vlog is a tutorial on how to put offset borders on stickers!! ☺️
I really want to make my own Etsy shop but I'm curious as to whether I have to print the shipping labels or I can just write the shipping information on the envelope
You can do both!! Printing labels allows you to give customers tracking, but it is a bit pricier than using stamps 😊
