Store-bought paint-by-numbers kits use stock pictures. With QrdyCraft you can turn your own photo — your kid, the family dog, a holiday snap — into a custom, number-guided craft in seconds. Technically QrdyCraft builds a mosaic sticker-by-number (a paint-by-numbers-style game where each numbered piece maps to a color), which your child can complete on screen or print and stick at home. This guide walks through the generator step by step.

Turn a photo into paint by numbers

1

Open the QrdyCraft generator

Go to qrdyai.com/craft and open the create page. No app or sign-in is needed to start.
2

Upload your photo (or type a keyword)

Upload a picture, or just type a keyword like “rainbow butterfly” if you don’t have a photo ready. Simple images with a clear subject trace best.
3

Pick a difficulty

Choose how many pieces the mosaic breaks into. More pieces means a harder, longer craft — match it to your child’s age (see the table below).
4

Let the generator build the mosaic

In a few seconds, QrdyCraft’s AI traces your image into a numbered, low-poly mosaic of colored pieces — the paint-by-numbers layout.
5

Play on screen or print

Play online by dragging numbered pieces into place, or download a print-ready PDF to complete by hand at home.

Open the QrdyCraft generator

Turn a photo or keyword into a custom paint-by-numbers in seconds — your first creation is free.

​
Match the difficulty to your child’s age

The generator scales the number of pieces so the craft isn’t too easy or too frustrating:

​
Three ways to use the result

Every generated mosaic comes in three views, so you can play digitally, print, or both:

Color

The finished full-color artwork — the picture your child is working toward.

Numbered grid

The blank numbered outline to fill in, just like a classic paint-by-numbers sheet.

Sticker sheet

The numbered, colored pieces to cut and place by number.

​
Play on screen or print at home

Play online

Open it on a phone or tablet and drag numbered pieces into the grid — no app, no sign-in. Finishing it triggers confetti and reveals the full-color picture.

Print & complete

Download the print-ready PDF (grid, sticker sheet, and color key are watermark-free) and complete it with paint, markers, or real decals at home.
Photos with a single clear subject and good contrast trace into cleaner paint-by-numbers than busy group shots. If the first result looks noisy, try a simpler picture or a lower difficulty.

​
A note on your photos

Uploaded photos are only traced for their outline and then discarded — your original image isn’t stored, and paint-by-numbers made from uploaded photos never appear in the public gallery. Only keyword-based creations can become public.
