How Can I Request Full Bleed Stickers?
Full bleed stickers are printed with artwork that reaches the edge of the sticker, creating a seamless edge-to-edge design without a white border.
By default, stickers may include a white border around the artwork to create a clean edge and provide additional cutting tolerance. If you prefer your design to reach the sticker edge, simply add a note requesting full bleed printing when placing your order.
Full Bleed vs White Border Sticker
Which Designs Work Best with Full Bleed Printing?
Full bleed printing works best for designs where the artwork extends naturally to the edge of the sticker, including:
- Full-color backgrounds
- Patterns and textures
- Edge-to-edge illustrations
- Full-background photos and detailed graphics
With full bleed, the artwork extends beyond the cut line, creating a seamless edge-to-edge finish without a white border.
Important: Full bleed is not applied by default. Please write "Full Bleed" or "No White Border" in your order notes when placing your order.
If your design contains important elements near the edge, keep them at least 1/8" inside the cut line to prevent them from being trimmed.
You do not need to add bleed to your artwork—we can prepare it for you. If you prefer to prepare the file yourself, extend the background approximately 1/12" beyond the cut line.
When Is A White Border Recommended?
Some designs may work better with a white border, especially when:
- Text is close to the edge
- Important details are near the cutline
- The artwork does not have enough background space
A white border helps protect important artwork details and creates a cleaner cut around complex designs.
