About this process

Blind Embossing is an appealing, malleable printing surface on which to create an image, often producing a unique and graphic based style to the finished print.

Embossing is the process of creating a recessed relief surface using a block made from card and various objects with varying degrees of texture. Using handmade, heavyweight cotton-rag based papers, the surface of this block is then pressed into the paper using a Nipping press to create an embossed surface.

Using imagery, textures, mark-making or text, blind embossing is the perfect way to create a unique and delicate relief print.
