Proofing Process Needs Improvement

Very happy with how the stickers turned out, but I was very frustrated with the proofing process. I knew exactly what I wanted and said so from the outset, but it took six proofs before the proof was finally what I asked for. With things like glitter and holographic stickers where you're dealing with different parts of the image being transparent and opaque, there needs to be a better system than, "Tell us what you want" because that clearly is not working well.
