It’s fascinating how technology and creativity can come together to make something truly special. In this post, we'll guide you through creating your own seasonal stickers using Microsoft Designer’s Sticker Creator. You don’t need any prior design experience to make something amazing—just a willingness to get creative and experiment!
What’s a prompt?
A prompt is a starting point that helps shape your artwork. In digital design, prompts are useful tools to focus your ideas and ignite your creative spark. They can be anything from a single word or phrase to a detailed description. Here’s a simple structure to keep in mind when crafting your prompts:
Medium: What type of artwork? (e.g., painting, sketch, digital illustration)
Subject: What is the main focus? (e.g., animal, object, person)
Environment: Where is it set? (e.g., forest, city, beach)
Now, let’s use this structure to create some fun seasonal stickers!
