- Stationery
- Monograms
- Logos
- Announcements
- Envelopes
- Premium paper projects
City Papery's printing department offers embossing as one of its specialty finishing services.
What Is Embossing?
Embossing creates a raised impression in paper.
Rather than simply applying ink to the surface, embossing changes the physical shape of the paper.
This creates a tactile effect that customers can see and feel.
Embossing can emphasize:
- Names
- Initials
- Logos
- Monograms
- Borders
- Decorative designs
- Patterns
- Typography
Embossing for Wedding Invitations
Embossing can give wedding stationery a sophisticated and dimensional appearance.
It can be used for:
- Wedding invitations
- Save-the-date cards
- RSVP cards
- Menus
- Programs
- Place cards
- Escort cards
- Wedding envelopes
A raised monogram, name, date, or decorative element can become a focal point of the invitation.
Embossing for Business Stationery
Embossing can also be used for professional applications.
Examples include:
- Business cards
- Letterhead
- Corporate stationery
- Envelopes
- Brand logos
- Presentation materials
A subtle embossed logo can create a premium physical representation of a company's brand.
Embossing and Specialty Paper
Paper selection is especially important for embossed projects.
The weight, texture, and characteristics of the paper can influence the final appearance.
City Papery offers premium and specialty papers in a range of colors, weights, textures, and finishes.
Our team can help you select an appropriate paper for your project.
Embossing vs. Debossing
Embossing raises a design above the paper surface.
Debossing creates an impression that goes into the paper.
If you are deciding between the two, our printing department can help you determine which effect best fits your design and paper.
City Papery's printing content also identifies embossing and debossing among its finishing options.
