The team at Snowbird came to us because they wanted the highest quality sticker in the world. We came through with this die-cut design of their iconic logo. We printed double-bumped (that means 2 layers of ink) silkscreen inks onto a super heavy duty super-tak vinyl (adhesive used by NASA) that will not peel or disintegrate in our lifetime. The ink is uv resistent, but that was not enough for snowbird, they insisted on adding a heavy duty UV laminate that will further protect this sticker from the sun.

About Snowbird

Snowbird resort opened in 1971 and is a year-round ski and summer resort located in the heart of the Wasatch-Cache National Forest on the eastern border of the Salt Lake City suburb of Sandy.

It’s no mystery why so many of the world’s finest pro skiers, riders and photographers call Little Cottonwood Canyon home. With unmatched snow, steeps and backcountry access, there’s a good chance that you’ll be sharing a chair with Sage Cattabriga-Alosa, Jeremy Nobis or one of the other superstars of the sport. Come see many of our athletes compete in the U.S. Free skiing Nationals in March, or call ahead to have us arrange a mountain tour with a homegrown pro.

What are Celtic Knots? Celtic Knots are a type of stylized graphical representations of knots used by the ancient Celts for ornamentation. These knots were also used for decorating Christian places and writings like the 8th century St. Teilo Gospels, the Book of Kells and the Lindisfarne Gospels.

The first use of knots appear to be architectural decorations in floors and patterns common in the late Roman Empire. Although the use of interlaced knot patterns are commonly found in Byzantine architecture and books, Coptic, Celtic and Islamic art. Endless knots also appear in Ethiopian and Tibetan artwork as well. The actual origin of these designs may never be known.

Many meanings of these knots have been proposed, and many of the proposed meanings may be correct. The endless nature of the knot may symbolize the endless cycle of life and death. The complexity of the knot may symbolize the complexity and interdependence of the natural world. The Tibetans made knots like these to symbolized the inter-twining of wisdom and compassion.

Here is a customer car that is all done up in Celtic knots.

We recently did stickers for HOT tweeters. Have you ever seen, hot or not hot? well this is the same thing, but instead of the cheesy photos people upload to hot or not hot, its cheesy twitter icons, yes you heard me right, twitter icons.

The site is actually pretty funny and should be tried at least once by everyone who loves the internets as much as I do. You should follow them on twitter and sign up on the site as well, they are funny, if you get voted hot, you get a @reply. I see how that could be annoying if you are really hot.

We did stickers on a shoestring budget for these guys, 1-color on a standard size sticker, $88 for 500.
They might do 4-color process after their Initial Public Offering.

StickerGiant often has customers that have great ideas for their stickers but don’t have artwork that can be reproduced well. The most common problem we encountered is getting a graphic to print that looks great on-screen at 72 dots per inch (dpi). The problem with these web graphics is that they do not reproduce well, screen resolution and real life printed products are completely different animals and do not play well together.

StickerGiant has world-class Artwork Services available to our customers. The pros at StickerGiant set type, simple design requests and do lots and lots of artwork recreation.

Recreating artwork takes a pro, it is extremely time intensive and detailed in nature and if you don’t have the experience some of these projects can take forever. Below is a job we did for the 86th AMXS Team Ramstein.

The 12 member team that provides on-the-spot services for the 86th Ramstein C-130s did not have the original artwork for their team crest. We wanted to help them out so one of our pro-artists recreated this intricate piece of artwork from scratch. Below is a medium sized version of this job, and here is a bigger view of the detailed before and after.

Remember when you were young and dating seemed to happen in groups? I do, those days were fun, but now with Ignighter you can recreate those good ole days right now, with all you single friends.

Group dating is safer than the craigslist meetups, it is less awkward than the blind dates, and group dating is more fun, always has been and always will be.

Ignighter came to us for stickers, cool stickers. They wanted something that would be unique as their business, so we came up with a design for a 4 spot color die cut sticker. They were a pleasure to work with, so you should try them out for your next dating experience.

The funny people at http://www.isuckatstickers.com made stickers that say I suck at [blank] so you can fill in what you suck at. These guys are celebrating the imperfect nature of the human condition. Here is my take on the I suck at sticker.

We love this sign. It means that at this very moment, hot donuts are marching through a glaze waterfall leaving them as delicious as they can possibly be. Mmmmmmmm donuts… We don’t have a license to serve food, but we do have some UserVoice stickers that will look great on your laptop. Most of these stickers are headed to Santa Cruz, but 2 dozen are hot right now. Just email your address to jeremy at stickergiant.com and I’ll drop one in the post for you.

(Small print, when these are gone you can still get them from Marcus…)
