Choosing The Best Foil Embossing Dies

By Gwen Lowe


Paper embossing is one of the oldest crafts, and it was used in the past to make a special effect on stamps. It is very special in that it makes the letters that are being embossed to be raised in the surface and so they become more obvious as compared to those that are not. It can also be used to make images more raised in the surface of the paper. This can be done using foil embossing dies.

The dye used today is manufactured by incorporating several elements like brass, copper and magnesium. The imprinted material helps a person to choose materials that help to make the dye compatible. Still, you will get other factors that determine the results. The client must make sure they have correct details before buying. The information allows one to make proper choices.

You can get different types of stamps. Each offers various advantages and disadvantages. The blind emboss technology uses other aspects and do away with ink and foils. This helps to highlight the stamped areas. For one to notice that the embossed paper has been completed, they have to check the arrangement of the paper on the use. This technology is applied on hard paper so that people will not forge but remain different.

The second technique is called registered embossing. It is basically a form of imagery that duplicates things that have been adorned by ink or foils on the paper's surface. The other method is combination emboss. It uses both impressing and foils impressing on one piece of paper to bring out a unique outcome. It will look common, yet complex to be fictitious because one cannot tell what has been done to it.

Some of the forms of impressing include scorching, pastelling, and glazing. All of them make surfaces look appealing and very inimitable. To enhance the effect, the finishing is done using the ink and pearl varnishes. It is so suitable for a decorative piece and also other products which will be because of their beauty, for example, gift wrappers and stamps.

Alternatively the foils beautification can be used. It requires a heated coloring to be smeared on the foils for the surface to be beautiful. This is the expected outcome since it being so gleaming and with the bright colors, people have to draw attention to it. This has been done on pens, pencils, photographs, book covers and hankies. These things should not be soaked in water because the decorations will come off.

Pastel foils are usually as flat opaque color and do not have shiny effects they can be white, and when embossed in white papers give out a subtle impressions that are unremarkable from afar. Embosses create a more striking 3D image, and this makes the surface look more artistic and beautiful.

When choosing these dies, pick the ones giving a deep feeling to be raised. To get the best results, use the new pneumatic automatic machines which operate at a high volume. This reduces work that makes people tired.
