To sign 'sticker', start with your non-dominant hand open and flat, with the palm facing sideways, representing a surface like a piece of paper. Form an 'A' handshape with your dominant hand, keeping your thumb extended. Bring your dominant hand toward your non-dominant hand and press the pad of your thumb firmly against the open palm, mimicking the action of placing a sticker onto a surface.
Sign 'laptop', then use the sign for 'sticker', pressing your thumb against your palm to show the action of placing it.
Point to the person, sign 'want', and then sign 'sticker' while raising your eyebrows and leaning forward to ask a yes/no question.
Sign 'teacher', 'give-me', 'gold', 'star', and finish with the sign for 'sticker' to complete the description.

Yes, the sign for 'sticker' is often the exact same as the sign for a postage 'stamp'. Both use the thumb pressing into the open palm to show affixing something small and sticky to a surface.
You should always use your dominant hand to do the moving and pressing. Your non-dominant hand acts as the stationary surface. If you are right-handed, your right thumb will press into your left palm.
Absolutely! While the standard sign is done in front of your chest, you can move the sign to a specific location on your body or in space to indicate exactly where a sticker was put.
