- Certain photo paper companies offer sticker pages, which will print your photos on stickers. Stickers can be used in scrapbooking, cards or other craft projects. These stickers are personalized, making them more interesting and personal than other types of stickers. You'll need to carefully follow instructions on your printer, your photo software and the box of paper to know how to feed the paper into the printer.
- T-shirt transfers allow you to personalize a T-shirt with your individual photos. Friends and family members will enjoy wearing something you created with photos of loved ones on the front. Follow instructions on paper packaging to learn how to print out the transfer. Use an iron to transfer the image onto a cotton or cotton/polyester T-shirt. Purchase T-shirts in retail stores for relatively cheap prices.
- If you are tired of paying high prices for greeting cards at the store, printing your own greeting cards with personal pictures not only creates a more meaningful gift, but saves you money as well. All you have to do is pull up a fourfold greeting card template on your home software and design your card with the picture on the front flap and your text on the inside. You can also place pictures on the inside or back cover if you wish before you print.
- Photo calendars can make a personal New Year or Christmas gift for friends or family members. Use photo paper to print 12 large 8-by-12 pictures of family, animals or landscapes. You can design a calendar template for each month of the coming year and print these out as well. Arrange your photos and calendar pages so that they open to reveal the picture and the calendar page. Take the calendar to an office store for binding.
