Use the Ellipse tool to draw a circle that will be used as the base of the social sticker.

Bend your text! Wrap the text around a circle to have it flow with the shape of the sticker. With the Type on a Path tool, you’ll be able to make your type follow a path that you’ve created from shapes or lines.
