2D Design: Sticker My World

You see them everywhere - on water bottles, laptops, car windows,
notebooks, and road signs. Stickers are a fun, colorful, and creative
means of self-expression; and in this camp, you will get to design
and create your own stickers and vinyl decals!

Campers will learn about 2D design using the Silhouette Cameo
hardware and software system. The Cameo is an electronic cutting
machine that can cut out designs from paper, vinyl, fabric and
other materials. Campers will learn about design principles which
they can incorporate into producing their own hand-designed
graphics, text or digital images. They’ll use software tools to convert
their designs to digital outlines for producing custom-cut decals.
During the week, we will engage in brainstorming activities in
which students will generate ideas for messages they wish to
express in their designs. Projects will include making full-color
paper sticker sheets with multiple copies of a single design, as well
as single-color vinyl decals.
