Hello there, traveller! I am Tricia and welcome to my humble abode! Notice those huge flowers up there? They are the daisies and are also my favourite flower. It symbolises new beginnings, hope, and fun — a perfect depiction of what I am feeling now. Join me as I share with you my journey on learning how to make animated stickers (for Whatsapp). Are you ready to see what I have prepared? Let's go!
WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Drawing animated stickers for is something new that I have always wanted to try because I am an avid user of stickers myself! This was why I have decided to embark on my first journey in creating an animated sticker that I am proud of.
I hope to challenge myself in improving my creativity in art. Are you interested in making your own stickers too? It may seem daunting at first but trust in the process and have hope! Do take a look at my sticker making process and feel free to use the stickers for yourself!
Life is more exciting when you start picking up digital tools, especially when it comes to your hobbies. Drawing has always been a hobby that I enjoy ever since I was a child! It was fun learning how to do digital art and play with all colours and brushes.

Whatsapp stickers are not restricted by the type of software used to create the stickers. On the other hand, making animated Telegram stickers require Adobe After Effects and a specific canvas size. I decided to buy Procreate as it is a one-time payment instead of Adobe After Effects which goes by monthly payment to create the animated stickers.
