Fun Tattoos That Look Like Stickers

Have you seen these super cool tattoos that look like stickers? I know I was fooled the first time I saw one!

Stickers are such a part of childhood and growing up, no matter when you were experiencing it. If you like your tattoos to have a kind of fun, funky, and nostalgic feel to them, this is the idea for you.

Video game or movie characters are the most common subjects in this style, but there are other fun ideas throughout the post that show you just how creative you can get with your tattoo styles.

I love that these go with any style you already have going: traditional or minimal, there’s a cool element it’s going to bring to the collection.

If you’re not super serious about your tattoos, here are funny tattoos to crack a smile at throughout your day.

Character Sticker Tattoos

Growing up, all of my favorite stickers were of my favorite movie or video game characters.

Like the Rugrats, for example. TV show and movies technically but… Anyways.

1. Glitter

Not only is the the sticker of every little girl’s dream… It’s got some glitter to it, adding to the allure.

2. It Looks So Real

This one looks so real, that the artist had to prove that it wasn’t!

3. Embroidery

Something different that looks like a sticker is embroidery! This is so much more detailed but has the same cool effect.

Colorful Tattoo Ideas

Again, if you’re sticking to an image that really resembles a sticker, it’s likely going to be pretty bright and colorful. I love all of these fun and cheery images that make your tattoo sleeve or even singular tattoo so happy looking.

4. Scary Shark

This scary shark is ready to attack, and the vibrant colors make him a little more fun as a tattoo.

5. Bright Green Buttercup

Our girl Buttercup from the Powder Puff Girls is a bright pop of green, anywhere she goes.

6. Iridescent Goku

How cool is this Goku sticker?

Tattoos That Look Like Stickers

If you can’t tell, I’m really on board with these tattoos that look like stickers.

They’re too fun and unique. I love how much they pop among all of these other little tattoos.

7. Baby Peach

Baby Peach is such a piece of my childhood, I might just have to get this one!

8. Heart Sticker

If you want to make something a little more unique out of a classic shape or idea like a heart tattoo, this is the way to make it really cool and new.

9. Sticker Cat

This one is for plant lovers and cat people… Here’s one of the cutest little sticker cat watering his plants.

What Makes A Tattoo Look Like A Sticker

When it comes to making a regular tattoo piece look like a sticker, there’s a couple of different elements added to the figure to give it this look. 

• Animated characters

These look best when you’re tattooing a subject that might actually be a sticker. Anything goes, but these look the most realistic. 

• White outline

Having the white outline that usually runs around the outside of a sticker we pull off of a sticker sheet makes this look like a true tattoo. 

• Shadows

Shading and shadows are always part of what makes a piece of art look real already, but include the shadow under a peeling sticker and that’s what I call a detailed piece of work! 

Something a little quirky never hurt anyone, and these sticker tattoos are all part of the fun.

I love the idea of different styles and unique looks of different tattoos, and this is a really good one.

The more you dig into tattoo culture and the tattoo world, the more you see is out there and the crazier you can choose to get, if you so desire. A sticker style tattoo is a great place to start, especially if there’s a piece of nostalgia in it.
