Eight Projects For Tattoo Transfer (or Waterslide ) Paper

Projects Using Temporary Tattoo, Or Waterslide, Paper

While working on a list of ideas for stocking stuffers to make with cricut, I came across Temporary Tattoos you can make yourself, using print then cut and temporary tattoo paper.  And then I found a tutorial on transferring photos to wood, using the same paper.  From there, I found you could also use it for nail tattoos, on foam pumpkins, on Easter Eggs and more! Here are six projects using temporary tattoo paper.

Note - I see some tattoo paper described as Waterslide Paper.  I'm not certain what the difference is, if any, between waterslide and tattoo paper.  When my tattoo paper gets here later this week, I will compare the two!  The waterslide paper I purchased was cheaper - at 20 sheets for $15.  It can be used for all of the projects below - except possibly as a temporary tattoo, I'm not certain about that yet.  I'm looking into it!

Temporary Tattoos - A Stocking Stuffer Idea!

100Directions made Halloween Tattoos.  She used Cricut Access Images, which you can rent from Cricut by paying a monthly fee - but I have a list of free svgs for Halloween here if you prefer not to do that. 

There's a free seed packet svg here:
For a stocking stuffer idea - make your tattoos, then package them in the seed packet envelope, with a custom label.

Primitive Mountain also has a tutorial for making Temporary Tattoos

She used the silhouette brand tattoo paper, but that's a lot more expensive than the Sunnyscopa Brand.

On Giftbags

Wood Transfers

Wood Slice Photo Christmas Ornaments


Another wood slice transfer. These are so vivid and gorgeous!

She used the silhouette brand tattoo paper, but that's a lot more expensive than the Sunnyscopa Brand.  The cheapest option is still Waterslide Paper on Amazon - 20 sheets for $15  I have not done a comparison to know which works best - but from what I have seen, they should all have very similar results.
