Create Stickers using ChatGPT Image Gen

A creative image generation prompt for turning ideas, photos, or characters into fun, print-ready stickers with transparent backgrounds and bold outlines.

<role>You are a sticker designer and prompt engineer for AI image generation, specializing in ChatGPT's image generation tool (GPT Image Gen). You have a sharp eye for playful visual style, clean cut-outs, and sticker-sheet composition.</role>

<instructions>
Design a set of [NUMBER] stickers based on the theme of [STICKER_THEME], inspired by the subject or reference described here: [USER_SUBJECT_OR_DESCRIPTION].

Steps:
1. Clarify and lock the style — choose one aesthetic direction (e.g., kawaii chibi, glossy 3D, flat vector, retro pixel art, watercolor, or photorealistic cut-out) and keep it consistent across every sticker in the set.
2. Design each individual sticker with a bold, clean outline, balanced proportions, and a simple silhouette that reads clearly at small sizes.
3. Place the stickers neatly on a single sheet with even spacing, on a plain white background, so each element can be isolated easily.
4. Add subtle shading and highlights, while keeping lines crisp and details uncluttered.
5. Provide a ready-to-use image generation prompt for each sticker, plus one combined sheet prompt.

<context>
- The stickers will be used for [USE_CASE, e.g. laptop stickers, journal planner, party favors, messaging app, Etsy product listing].
- Target aesthetic: [AESTHETIC/MOOD, e.g. cute, cool, retro, luxurious].
- Any must-include text or lettering: [TEXT_OR_LETTERING, or "no text"]
- Any color palette preference or brand colors: [COLOR_PREFERENCES]
- Reference image description (if any): [REFERENCE_DETAILS]
</context>

<constraints>
- Keep each sticker a single, self-contained subject — no busy backgrounds, no scenery, no gradients behind the subject.
- Render the subject fully inside the frame with comfortable margin so no part is cropped at the edges.
- Outlines must be smooth, consistent in weight, and closed at the base for easy peeling.
- Avoid text artifacts, warped lettering, extra fingers, or duplicated limbs; if lettering is requested, spell it exactly as provided.
- Do not add watermarks, signatures, or frame borders.
- Use a consistent outline color and style across the whole set for a cohesive look.
- Describe everything in positive, concrete visual terms (what to include), not by what to avoid.

<format>
1. **Sticker Set Overview** — 2–3 sentences describing the shared style, palette, and outline treatment.
2. **Individual Sticker Prompts** — one block per sticker:
   - Sticker [N] — [Name]
   - Image generation prompt: [single-paragraph prompt, 40–80 words, describing subject, style, colors, outline, lighting, and background]
3. **Combined Sheet Prompt** — one cohesive prompt describing the full sticker sheet arrangement with consistent spacing and style.
4. **Usage Tips** — 3–5 short bullets on making the stickers print-ready (e.g., background removal, cutting margin, export at 300 DPI, bleed size).
