  • Letterpress: It is a traditional printing method where a raised design (like text or artwork) is pressed into thick paper, creating an indentation. This technique gives a tactile, elegant feel and is often used for high-end stationery like wedding invitations.

    Foil Stamping: A thin sheet of shiny, metallic foil is pressed onto the design using a custom metal plate and heat. This creates a smooth, reflective finish that stands out beautifully on the paper.

    Embossing: Itis a printing technique that raises parts of the design above the surface of the paper, creating a 3D effect. The result is a raised element that you can see and feel.

    Flat Printing: It is a printing method where the design is printed directly onto the paper, leaving a smooth, flat surface. It’s a versatile and cost-effective option, perfect for designs with lots of color or intricate elements.
