    newbie to stickers but been drawing for awhile now, i got a inkjet printer after months of saving since i do mostly digital art i figure i can just print a fuck load of sheets laminate a side and cute them out and get a nice stock. but im having issues finding some decent brands of paper/lamination/weathering-resisting methods. my first batch of stickers all died after a couple days in the rain im pretty sure it was just the wrong paper. any recommendations?

    Anyone have any tips for getting a lot of smaller stickers applied quickly and covertly?

    Can copic markers last on outdoor slaps, I am mainly a paper and pen type artist and already have a wide array of colors. Just wondering for making stickers since I already have those.

    If you put them in side the news paper holders . (Where they put the paper of the day) it will fade slower as well

    brands? I’ve heard decos are good for the price, but also ppl say molotows are worth the extra buck.

    Could always just coat them with clear coat and then put some see through tape over the top of them?

    all i do is buy a bunch of single sized labels, then i take a sheet of parchment paper, i layer each label slightly on top of each other and i can make a sticker any size i want, do my drawing, then i take packing tape and run a couple strips over the picture, then i cut it out and leave a small lip on the side to peel it quickly
