Embossing is a technique that creates a raised or sunken effect on paper or other materials, as shown in the examples above. It adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to your designs whether they are invitations, cards, labels, or packaging. Embossing can also enhance the readability and visibility of your text and images, making them stand out from the background.
However, embossing requires special equipment and materials, such as embossing plates. These can be expensive and difficult to find. That’s why we recommend checking out our range of high-quality embossing sets.
What is an Embossing Set ?
An embossing set consists of two plates: a female plate and a male plate. The female plate is made from magnesium, a metal that is hard and durable. The male plate can be either made from magnesium or photopolymer, a plastic resin that is flexible and easy to use. The female plate has a recessed image of your design, while the male plate has a raised image of your design. When you sandwich your paper or material between the two plates and apply pressure, you create an embossed or debossed effect.
