When you think of the word “summer,” what do you picture? Heading to your favorite beach, lake, or waterpark? A calendar full of weddings and their accompanying events (perhaps even your own)?

But in case you’re looking for inspiration, be it as an event planner, a bride or groom-to-be, or a creative yourself, here are 8 sticker creators who are embracing summer style in every sense of the word.
