Using pressure alone, without ink, blind embossing and blind debossing create elegant, textured finishes on printed materials. Embossing raises the image above the paper's surface while debossing presses it into the material.
Creating the finish
The process closely resembles engraving while omitting the ink. Using only the machine's force, it creates impressions that highlight and shadow the typography or graphics. Blind stamping works beautifully on various papers and card stocks, producing sophisticated invitations and stationery that engage both the eye and touch. It is often combined with other printing methods, such as foil blocking or lithography, to produce striking results.
