Embossing combines heat, pressure and
a metal die to reshape and mold the
paper. Most any image can be embossed
(raised) or debossed (lowered) into the
surface of the paper which adds interest
and uniqueness to a design. The die can
be single level, multi level, or even hand
sculpted to simulate the textural
qualities of any surface. It is very
important to convey your design with
clear instructions by drawing side views
and using samples that closely resemble
your solution. The possibilities are
endless considering that you can
combine your impression with foils and/
or conventional printing. Ask for
recommendations and be prepared to
answer questions to ensure complete
understanding. Consider carefully the
choice of paper because some may not
stand up to the stress of embossing. The
most interesting effects can be achieved
on heavy textured, thick weight and
darker color paper. Be sure to visit our
portfolio page to see some examples of
our embossing.
