I print my stuff out on cardstock and then coat each side with 3 coats of clear nail polish, drying well in between coats. Then I cut out my images. It makes it almost like plastic.

I've read that putting them between packing tape works well too.

Try Judikins Microglaze, it's a wax sealer and can be purchased right here on Etsy.

I seal all my images with Modge Podge before using glaze or resin

Micro Glaze is the BEST. Acid free and doesn't add any depth to your pendant.

I sell it at my sight

I have to get my images printed on laserjet printers instead of inkjet. Laser jet doesn't bleed.

I just started using a product called Nunn Design Sealant.
It works great!

Spray them with a clear acrylic sealer--outdoors.
