How to Make a Sticker in BunnyPic

Creating a sticker in BunnyPic is way easier than using Photoshop. BunnyPic is a free online photo editor that doesn’t require any installation or sign-up. It has similar tools to Photoshop and will help you design high-quality stickers.

Let’s dive into how to actually make a sticker of your images in BunnyPic.

Setting Up

If you already have a sticker you want to use for your image you can skip ahead to the steps.

First, we’ll have to download an image that we will convert into a sticker. The main feature of a sticker is the white stroke that indicates its sticky side.

You can explore sites such as Pexels, Unsplash, or Pixabay and download a free-to-use, non-copyright image from there. If you want to turn an icon into a sticker you can check out Flaticon, which is the best resource for high-quality icons.

Follow the below steps to get started:

  1. Go to Flaticon and type in the icon you want to download as a sticker.
  2. From the library of options click on the one you best like.
  3. On the new screen click PNG > Free Download. This will download the icon with a transparent background.

Now that we have our icon, it’s time to use BunnyPic to create it into a sticker.

1. Open Your Image in BunnyPic

Go to the BunnyPic editor and add your image by clicking Open from Computer and selecting your image or dragging it into the editor.

2. Duplicate Your Layer

We don’t want to edit the original layer in case we want to get back to the original layer. This is called non-destructive editing and preserves the original image.

To duplicate your layer open the Layers panel from the right, right-click on your layer, and select Duplicate layer or Press CTRL+J.

On the new layer, we will add a stroke to our image to give it the effect of a sticker. To do this:

  1. Double-click on your layer “Layer 1”. This will open up a new window displaying the layer styles.
