Free Printable Desert Dreamer Style Journal & Planner Stickers With Canon IVY

Share this project

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Canon. All opinions are 100% mine.

There are two things that I love most about my Canon IVY Mini Printer; the first is that all the prints are stickers and the second is that I can literally take this tiny printer with me and print anywhere. Ok, I have a third thing that I love about my Canon IVY and it’s that it doesn’t require any INK! More on that later. Here I’ve shared how to use the ZINK sticker prints for Wedding Save the Dates, fun printable Kids Scavenger Hunts (which are perfect for spring break), awesome Photo Gift Tags and so much more. Today we’re using our mint green Canon IVY Mini Printer to create adorable journal and planner stickers that you can also download and print using your Canon IVY Cliq+2 Instant Camera Printer!

There are three ways to use our exclusive collection of stickers: One: you can download our 2″x3″ ZINK “rectangle-ready” prints at the end of the post. Two: You can find our sticker designs inside of the Canon Mini Print App (OMG ~ so awesome!) and add them to any photo you’d like. Three: you can download our 8.5″ x 11″ pdf designs at the end of our post that you can print with any Canon PIXMA printer… happy crafting!

Zero Ink

Canon IVY photo printers only require special paper called ZINK which stands for “ZERO INK”. Instead of ink, it uses colorful dye-based crystals embedded inside the paper. Before printing, the embedded dye crystals are clear so ZINK paper looks like regular, white photo paper and it uses heat to activate and colorize the crystals. So you never have to worry about running out of ink!

Desert Dreamers

For all you desert dreamers, VSCO girls, planner babes, and all around sticker lovers… this adorable collection is for you! 20 stickers total!

Canon Mini Print App

First things first, using your smartphone or tablet, open (or download) the Canon Mini Print App; available for Apple and Android. From here you get to decide what you’re going to print…

3/25/22: I’m so excited to announce that this collection of stickers is available within the Canon Mini Print App!

Load Your Canon IVY With ZINK Paper

Loading your Canon IVY with ZINK photo paper is super easy. Make sure to put the blue SmartSheet in first and face down, this sheet properly calibrates your Canon IVY to the paper it’s about to print on. Don’t miss this step. Then close your IVY back up, that’s all there is to it.

Print A Sticker

Download the zip file of “rectangle ready” IVY sticker files at the bottom of this post and save them to your smart device. Then when you’re in the app, you can click to select any sticker files you’d like to print. The files can be accessed via your phone photos or Google Drive. Here I chose the peace sign and shaka-bra.

Each time you print with a new pack of paper, remember the blue SmartSheet will come out first.

Using the stickers that are inside the Canon Mini Print App is super easy. Just open a photo that you’d like to print, then at the bottom select “stickers”. An entire panel of stickers will appear and you can choose ours our any other collection you see.

Here I chose to print the iced coffee on top of a turquoise wall I took a photo of.
