I make custom lip balm and design and print labels for all types of products for any occasion. This project was done for a customer to complement their existing product line. I designed the label with a black background and white lettering on white gloss label stock which makes a stunning display. I also did the final designing on Maestro Designer which helped me print without a white outline on the finished labels.
Don't be afraid to make your design larger than the 'template' size so that full color backgrounds do not have a outline on them that you have to trim.
