The disclosure discloses an ink ribbon. The ink ribbon includes a ribbon base layer, a first layer, and a second layer. The first layer is configured to separate from the ribbon base layer and is disposed on a first surface of the ribbon base layer. The second layer is configured to adhere to a transfer target and is disposed on the first layer. The melting point of the second layer is 60 [° C.] or more and 90 [° C.] or less.

Proposed are a thermal transfer ribbon and a sticker printing method using the same, which can form not only full-color images formed by a color ink part but also points, such as pearl, fluorescent, luminous, sparkling, glass, and metal glitters. The thermal transfer ribbon includes: a color ink part having a yellow ink part (Y), a magenta ink part (M), and a cyan ink part (C); an overlay part forming an overlay layer to protect a printed surface; and at least one point ink part provided between the color ink part and the overlay part.

A thermal transfer ribbon including a substrate, the substrate has a surface provided with dye layer parts and transferable protective layer parts repeatedly formed thereon, and the transferrable protective layer parts include first layer parts formed on the substrate, and second layer parts formed on the respective first layer parts. The first layer parts contain a charge control agent, and the second layer parts contain an antistatic agent and a lubricant.
