About Me

Hi there! I’m Nicole! 

Welcome to Sassy & Sticky—I’m so happy you’re here!

I’m Nicole, the owner, designer, sticker lover, and the one who packs every order with way too much excitement. If you’ve ordered from me before, you’ve probably noticed I have a slight obsession with bright colors, happy mail, and making opening your package almost as fun as what’s inside it.

My story starts in the little mountain town of Oakhurst, California, just outside the south entrance to Yosemite National Park. As a teenager, I worked for my parents’ business, where I spent countless hours transforming hand-drawn transformer schematics into digital drawings using… Microsoft Paint. (Yes, really! 😂) Looking back, I had no idea that those hundreds of drawings would spark a lifelong love of graphic design.

After high school, I attended California State University, Fresno, where I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing. While I was there, I met my husband, and together we’ve been married for over 10 years and have the sweetest daughter, who reminds me every day to keep creating, imagining, and having fun.

Years later, I found myself missing the creative side of life. I started designing stickers just for fun, thinking I’d make a few for myself. Well… “a few” quickly turned into 250+ designs, and I realized I had found something that truly made me happy.

So I took a chance, opened my little shop, and Sassy & Sticky was born.

Today, every design you see in my shop is created by me with one simple goal: to make someone smile.

Whether you’re decorating your favorite water bottle, planner, laptop, Kindle, classroom, scrapbook, or creating the perfect gift, I hope my designs bring a little extra color and happiness into your day.

When you order from Sassy & Sticky, you’re supporting a real person who still gets excited every time a new order comes in. I print, package, and ship everything myself, carefully checking each order before it heads out. You’ll usually find your stickers tucked inside colorful packaging (because boring mail is no fun!), and every now and then I love sneaking in a little surprise freebie just to brighten your day.

For me, Sassy & Sticky isn’t just about stickers—it’s about creating little moments of joy.

Thank you for supporting my small business, believing in my dream, and allowing me to do what I absolutely love. It truly means the world to me.

Now go decorate something fun! 💕
