Finally got around to designing and printing my own labels!

Unfortunately the black ink is playing up and not giving a solid black as desired, but still think they turned out pretty well

What software do you use for design?
I use Adobe Illustrator. I used to work for a design agency (as a web dev, not designer) so got shown my way round it briefly, enough to put something together at least.

wow..these look great..I personally use Photoshop to make mine still I coldn't figure best way to print my labels. At first I was using a printer but I didn't like how they came out. Then I ordered a few from https://allinpackaging.co.uk/ -- they are printing custom labels which do look okay but still am curious what are other ways to print out nice labels on fine paper??
