Question

What is foil stamping?

Answer

Foil stamping presses a thin layer of metallic or pigmented foil onto paper using a heated die. The result is a bright, reflective accent that catches light and instantly signals a premium piece.

  • How it works: a heated die transfers the foil onto the stock under pressure.
  • The look: a shiny, reflective finish in gold, silver, copper, or colored foils.
  • Best on: logos, borders, and type on cards, invitations, and other high-end pieces.
