Screen shot from Virtual Waterloo Records Stickers
I discovered an online resource for amateur stickerloo practitioners. Virtual Waterloo Records Stickers allows artists to manipulate simulated letters from the stickerloo font to create mock stickerloos, which are then archived on the Web site and voted on by viewers. I love this site's efforts at promoting the art of stickerloo. I do wish the developers had taken a more traditionalist approach with regards to the sticker layout and font representation. They chose what I like to call the "ransom note" style, which is not invalid, though it compares to the traditional style something like Play-Doh does to Bronze--fun, approachable, impermanent.
I encourage all appreciators of this art form to check out this site. Get inspired. Then get yourself a pair of scissors and discover the divine pleasure that can only come from crafting authentic stickerloo.
