What is "embossing"?
Embossing is a technique used to create raised designs or patterns on a surface, such as paper, leather, or metal. This is achieved by pressing or stamping the material with a die or mold to form the design. The result is a three-dimensional effect where the design stands out from the background. Embossing is often used for decorative purposes, such as on stationery, book covers, and packaging, and can add a textured, elegant touch to various items.
