Custom stickers and decals in Calgary
Your logo cut to its own shape, on vinyl that holds up to Calgary weather. Hand them out, slap them on, sell them at the booth.
Quick answer
Custom stickers and decals are printed adhesive graphics cut to a shape you choose. SURE Print Foothills prints them in Calgary on paper and vinyl, in removable or permanent adhesive, and cuts them in-house as die-cut, kiss-cut, sheet or roll stickers. They're used for branding, packaging, giveaways, merchandise and signage.
Decals are about the most flexible piece of marketing you can buy. The same logo sticker can seal a takeout bag, go on a hard hat, sit in a swag bag at a conference and end up on someone's snowboard. They're cheap to hand out and people actually keep them, which is more than you can say for most flyers.
We print in full colour and cut every sticker to shape in our shop. You pick the size, the material and whether it should peel off later or stay on for good. If you're printing for a market table or a launch, we can also bundle several designs onto one sheet so people take the whole set.
Options
Sticker and decal options
Die-cut stickers
Cut right through the backing to the outline of your design, so each sticker is its own shape. Great for logos and characters.
Kiss-cut stickers and sheets
The sticker is cut but the backing isn't, so you get a neat square or a sheet holding several designs. Easier to peel and hand out.
Roll stickers
Supplied on a roll for fast hand application on packaging, bags and mailers.
Cut vinyl decals
Solid-colour vinyl letters and shapes with no background. Clean on glass, walls, equipment and boats.
Clear and white vinyl
Clear lets the surface show through around your design. White gives you solid, opaque colour on any background.
Removable or permanent adhesive
Removable for short campaigns and surfaces you need to keep clean. Permanent for things that have to stay put.
What to expect

Size, quantity, where it's going and how long it needs to last. That decides the material and adhesive.
- 2
Set up the cut line
We add a cut path around your artwork. If your file doesn't have one, our designers will build it.
- 3
Proof
You get a proof showing the shape, size and colours. Nothing prints until you approve it.
- 4
Print, laminate and cut
We print, add a laminate if the sticker needs it, and cut each one to shape in-house.
What people order them for
- Logo stickers for bags, boxes and takeout containers
- Giveaways for trade shows, Stampede events and conferences
- Merch for bands, breweries, coffee shops and creators
- Hard hat, toolbox and equipment decals for crews
- Asset tags and inventory stickers for offices and job sites
- Laptop and water bottle stickers for teams and clubs
Getting a sticker people actually keep
Keep it simple. A sticker is small, and fine text or a busy background turns to mush at two inches wide. Bold shapes, a strong outline and two or three colours usually beat a shrunk-down copy of your whole website header. If you want something people put on their laptop, make it look like it belongs there, not like an ad.
FAQ
Custom Decals & Stickers questions
What's the difference between die-cut and kiss-cut stickers?
Die-cut stickers are cut through the vinyl and the backing, so the whole sticker is shaped like your design. Kiss-cut stickers are cut only through the vinyl, leaving a square or rectangular backing that's easier to peel.
Are your stickers waterproof?
Vinyl stickers with a laminate handle rain, snow and dishwashers far better than paper. Paper stickers are fine indoors and on packaging but don't like getting wet. Tell us where they're going and we'll pick the right one.
What file should I send for custom stickers?
A vector file (AI, EPS or PDF) is ideal because it scales cleanly and makes the cut line easy. A high-resolution PNG works too. If all you have is a small logo from your website, send it and we'll tell you if it'll print well.
Can you match my brand colours?
We print to match your brand colours as closely as the material allows. Send us your colour codes and check them on the proof.
