FAQs – Embossed Business Cards
How does embossing differ from debossing or flat printing?
Embossing raises the design above the paper surface, while debossing presses it down. Flat printing only applies ink to the surface without any depth. Embossed designs feel more luxurious to the touch and visually stand out even without ink or foil.
Can embossed designs include fine details or intricate logos?
Embossing works best with bold shapes and medium-weight lines. Extremely fine details may lose definition, so our design team refines artwork to ensure clarity and precision in the raised elements.
How thick is the cotton stock used for embossed cards?
We use ultra-thick 45pt (750gsm) cotton stock to support deep embossing without tearing. This thickness provides durability and ensures that the raised designs remain crisp over time.
Are there any limitations or precautions with embossing?
Yes. Extremely fine lines or very small text can lose definition or even tear the paper during embossing. We recommend using medium-to-bold fonts and slightly thicker line weights to ensure clean, raised impressions. Our design team will review your artwork and suggest adjustments if needed.
Can I combine embossing with foil stamping or printing?
Absolutely. Embossing pairs beautifully with foil stamping and Pantone ink printing to add contrast and make designs pop.

Yes. Their premium look and tactile feel make them a popular choice for corporate executives, boutique brands, law firms, and high-end creative professionals.
