Embossing is a process of using heat and pressure to create a three-dimensional image or design in a two-dimensional surface like paper or other textiles. The technique is also achieved by using a letterpress machine. Embossing is commonly used to improve paper products like tissue paper and paper towels by giving them texture. Using embossed lettering or designs is a simple way to add pizzazz to a homemade greeting or birthday card. Your card will have a professionally crafted look, but still maintain that personalized feel of a homemade card.
