Happy Tuesday! Today we're creating something I love, love to make - digital stickers! This is such a fun effect to apply to your work because it looks like they're actually lifting up off the screen!

I'm labeling this tutorial as advanced because there are several steps utilizing different methods to achieve our look. If you're an intermediate Procreate user, this will be a fun challenge project to do! Once you have the steps down, you can apply the effect to any graphic you'd like.

From this advanced tutorial, you'll learn how to:
✨ Paint a digital watercolor cornflower
✨ Expand the flower's silhouette to create a kiss-cut style sticker
✨ Apply a perfectly even outline to the the sticker
✨ Create a lifting effect with shadows and highlights
✨ Add the impression of thickness to your sticker with an added thin shadow layer

Grab the free color palette and brushes used above to get started!
