I use the vinyl shirt stickers made by avery and a laser printer. They are cheap, come with their own free online design studio, and they dont run or tear when wet.

How much puree? Would you add more or less next time?

I used the entire can, but my intention was to have a softer mouthfeel beer and opaque purple appearance, which it was. If your going for a more traditional feeling clearer beer, I would use 1/3-1/2 of a can.
