1. Get Stickers from StickerCan Gallery

👉 Click the Search icon to open the sticker resource search function

👉 In the sticker resource search dialog, you can:

Enter keywords in the search bar or use recent search terms to query again

Browse our regularly updated recommended sticker themes - just click to find the latest themed resources

👉 Search results will be previewed as collections. Choose your favorite sticker set and click the "Add to Canvas" to load them to your Canvas!

💡

Stickers loaded from our server are higher quality and usually only take a moment to load. If load unsuccessfully, it might be due to network issues - try refreshing the page

👉 Once loaded successfully, you can use them anywhere on your canvas! Don't like a particular sticker? No worries - justdelete it! 🙃

2. Upload Your Own Stickers to Canvas

Of course, you probably have your own sticker collection too! You can load these into Canvas to create mixed collections that are easy to use.

Click the image icon in the top toolbar or press "P" on your keyboard to open the local image upload window. Select the JPG or PNG image files you want to add to your Canvas.

💡

Important to mention - stickers uploaded or loaded to the Canvas tool are completely saved on your own device and NOT uploaded to our servers. So feel free to upload your own creations without worrying about copyright issues

💡

This also means your Canvas won't automatically save to our servers. If you want to keep your Canvas long-term, you'll need to actively save your Canvas file

3. Collect Web Images to Canvas

👉 Images from other websites that support copying can also be collected to Canvas. Right-click on an online image and select "Copy Image"

👉 Return to the StickerCan tab, right-click on an empty area, select "Paste" and it will merge into your sticker collection on Canvas

4. Save Your Canvas Sticker Sets Long-term

💡

Since the Canvas tool doesn't automatically upload your data to our servers (it's only stored in your device's browser), you'll need to actively use the save feature to store your Canvas file on your device if you want to keep your sticker set long-term.

Depending on your device's performance, we recommend keeping the number of stickers in a single Canvas file under 60-100 stickers.

👉 Click the main menu icon (in the top-left corner of your browser or bottom-left on mobile browsers), and find the"Save to".

👉 Follow the prompts in the pop-up window to complete saving and file naming. This will fully save all images and formatting information in your current Canvas.

👉 After naming and saving your sticker set, you can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+S or click"Save to current file" to update the data saved in your local file.

5. Open Canvas Sticker Set Files

👉 To use a sticker set file, click the main menu, find the "Open"

👉 click "Load from file" of following dialog and select the *.excalidraw file.

💡

It's important to note that if you currently have images in your browser Canvas, they will be completely replaced by the opened file. So when opening a sticker set, make sure you've saved the current Canvas content or are willing to discard what's currently in your browser.

👉 Once loading is complete, the Canvas tool will restore the file's content to your browser.

That's everything you need to know about collecting and managing your sticker sets! Next up, we'll see how to easily use them in your creative fun activities and decorations!
