Update · Color book

Every sticker sheet is now a coloring page

The sticker book got a twin. Same sheets, same drawings, but in black and white, and you bring the colors. With gradients, a replay video and 20 backgrounds to color in.

The sticker book is full of crooked houses, grinning suns and jelly blocks with faces. Looking at all those drawings, Fernand had one thought: what if you could color them in yourself? Crayons instead of glue. Fair point.

So every sticker sheet was redrawn as a line drawing. All 290 of them, plus a few extra sheets that only live in the color book. ChatGPT did the drawing, sheet by sheet, and every sheet that came out blurry or wobbly went straight back. Only the crisp ones made it in.

Build your page first

It works just like the sticker book. Tap a drawing on the sheet and it lands on your white page. Move it, make it bigger, turn it, put it in front of the others. A house here, a tree there, a sun that is far too big. Your page, your rules.

Then pick a color and tap. The whole area fills in one go, no scribbling outside the lines. Changed your mind? Tap again with another color and the new one simply replaces the old. There is an eraser, and an undo button for the moments you really need one.

Five drawings, a handful of taps. The logo wanted some color too.

The bit we are a little proud of

Most online coloring pages stop at "tap to fill". We wanted something you don't see everywhere. So the paint box has gradients: pick two colors, drag across an area, and it fades from one to the other. A sunset sky, a rainbow candy, a roof that goes from red to orange. There is a straight one and a round one, and you will definately lose ten minutes to it.

And then there is Replay. Press it and your page builds itself again: the drawings pop onto the paper, and every color you added grows back from the spot where you tapped, in about fourteen seconds. You can save it as a video to send to grandma. She will ask how you did it. You don't have to tell her.

Replay, halfway through. The roof is already red, the sun is next.

Zoom, backgrounds and your own pages

Tiny windows and little flowers are hard to hit on a phone, so you can zoom in up to four times, with the buttons, the mouse wheel or two fingers. There are also 20 backgrounds to color in, from a meadow and a beach to a starry sky and the bottom of the sea.

Under My pages you keep your work to finish later, on any device where you are logged in. Two places are free; more cost 200 coins each. When you are done, print it, save it as a picture, or print it as an empty coloring page for a rainy afternoon with real crayons.

"Not into stickers? Not into coloring? You can turn one into the other with a single gold button."

One book, two ways

The sticker book and the color book share your collection. A sheet you get in one is yours in the other, too. The first sheet, Welcome to Tiltwick, is free, and the rest you get with the coins you earn in the games. With the switch at the top you jump between the two books, and the gold button next to it turns your sticker page into a coloring page, or the other way round.
