Sent with your prompt

Die-cut sticker: one bold cartoon character or object with clean dark outlines and flat bright colors, surrounded by a thick, even white border that follows its silhouette, with a slight drop shadow, on a plain flat color background. Simple shading, playful chunky shapes and the look of printed vinyl.

What is the sticker art style?

It is an illustration style that copies a die-cut vinyl sticker: bold dark outlines, a few flat colors, a thick white border that follows the shape and a slight shine. Use it for icons, social posts, characters and whole themed sheets. On Nano Banana 2.1 an image costs 10 credits.

What makes the look

Border, outline, color and finish

The subject can be anything. These cues make the drawing look printed on vinyl and cut out.

  1. Die-cut border

    A thick white edge that follows the outline of the art, with a soft drop shadow so it lifts off the background.

  2. Bold outline

    One dark line weight around every shape, so the drawing stays clear at icon size.

  1. Flat color

    A few flat fills and no soft gradients. Small details get lost at sticker size.

  2. Finish

    Glossy vinyl catches a highlight, matte stays soft, and a peeled corner shows the white back of the sticker.

How to draw in the sticker style

  1. Pick the subject or a theme

    Name one character or object, or a theme and every item on a sheet. Five to eight items fit well on one square image.

  2. Ask for the border and the finish

    Say thick white die-cut border, flat colors and bold outlines, then glossy or matte. Add no text, since the model can misspell words.

  3. Print the ones you keep

    For real stickers, make your favorites as single images and follow the stickers guide: the Sticker tool cuts each one out, adds a border and lays out a print sheet.
