Let your photo transfer dry at least 8 hours. Brush a thick coat of matte mod podge onto the surface of your print and then lay it face down on top of your wood tag. I sized and printed my photo art images and then cut them out to be the same size as my wood tags.ģ. And if your image contains text, make sure you reverse it before you print it! ![]() If you aren’t sure what you have, try printing something and getting it wet, if the image smears you’ve got inkjet, if not, it’s a laser print and you’re good to go! A laser printer is the kind that uses toner instead of ink cartridges. You MUST print your photo art on a laser printer NOT an inkjet printer. Now before you start this project, the two most important things to know are: You can even add cool things like lens flares or graphics and frames to your photos!Ģ. I loved that the Digital Art effects aren’t one size fits all, you can adjust their settings and play around with their opacity so you have a lot of control over your finished artwork. The PopArt dlx effect is so cool, look what it did to this nice architectural shot of downtown Chicago:Īnd Aa was especially fond of the Ink Wash effect on his gritty industrial photo of a telephone pole from our alley… Here’s the before and after…īut I also loooved all of the Digital Art effects that BeFunky has. This one was the hands down fave in my household. My faves were the photo to cartoon effect that I used to “cartoonize” this awesome butterfly photo. ![]() First you need to turn your regular boring old photos to into art, you can sign up for a BeFunky Plus account to access all of the fun effects (it’s only $4.95/month or $2.91/month for an annual account) but don’t worry you can try them all out for free first before you subscribe.I took some of Aa’s instagram photos and used some of their fun digital art effects to create some really cool artwork that I thought would make perfect personalized DIY luggage tags to stand out in a crowd. And not just lame art effects like you can get in free apps. And I edit photos as my job so I know what I’m talking about! It did all the things I could do with photoshop plus had art effects.

Now instead of 1000 black suitcases on the luggage carousel, there are 500 black suitcases with a bright red luggage tag and 500 black suitcases with a bright green luggage tag. So then I started browsing luggage tags online and quickly came to realize that in trying to be unique in identifying our luggage we’re all doing the exact same thing and thus not being unique at all. ![]() So you guys, I’ve been wanting to try transferring photos to wood FOREVER! I love the look but for some reason I thought it was going to be difficult or that the results wouldn’t live up to my perfectionist tendencies (spoiler alert: not true!) I was drooling over wood photo transfers on the same day I was planning an upcoming family vacation and lamenting the fact that I hate checking my boring black suitcase because it looks just like all the other boring black suitcases and trying to watch the luggage carousel and two small children is so stressful. ![]() Thanks to BeFunky for sponsoring this post, all opinions are my own! Transfer your personalized photo art to wood to make these fun and unique photo art DIY luggage tags! ![]()
