Foiling is a striking printing style. Text or images are “pressed” through foil into the paper under both pressure and heat leaving the design of the die on the paper. Foil stamping can be combined with embossing to create a more striking 3D image.
Coloured foils such as Gold, Silver or White are ideal for dark coloured paper or card.
