Kiss Cut
Kiss Cuts are light surface cuts on stickers. Add multiple kiss cuts to your sticker design to make custom sticker sheets. Kiss Cuts do not cut the backing material, which allows the kiss cut stickers to peel out of the sheet.
Kiss cuts can be used to create what we call "easy peel stickers". This places a single kiss cut around the perimeter of a die cut or standard shape sticker, which allows you to easily peel it from the backing material. This easy peel kiss cut is offered as an affordable upgrade option when you order custom stickers.
The most common use for kiss cuts is to create custom sticker sheets. You can see sticker sheet samples here or view examples below.
