This tutorial will outline how to use colour with the sticker spray tool. In order to get the most of out this tutorial you should have a basic knowledge of how to create stickers and how to make use of them as stickersprays.
You can learn basic sticker creation with Someonesane's video demonstration here:

There are two areas where we can define colour with sticker spray brushes. Firstly, within the sticker image itself and secondly using the Spray Variation Dialog.
Understanding Sticker Spray Colour.
Attached is an image of the Computer Colour Spectrum. We can see underneath the Red, Green and Blue primary colours (RGB) that when added together in varying ways will allow us to mix any colour within this spectrum.
If we look at the vertical dotted lines in this diagram we can see that Red (255,0,0) is the starting and ending colour value 0°/360°. Green our second primary colour of RGB sits at 120°. Our last RGB primary value of Blue is at 240°. We can also see that mixing Red with Green and no Blue will result in Yellow(60°). Green with Blue and no red will result in Cyan (180°). Red with Blue and no Green will give us magenta (300°).
