Ways to use Gold-Foil Stamp
Gold-Foil Stamp questions
- What is foil stamping?
- A heated die presses metallic foil onto stock, transferring it only where the die makes contact. Because it is a physical die, the technique suits type, logos and simple shapes rather than photographs.
- Why does the foil look different across the image?
- Real foil is specular, so it reflects the environment and shifts from bright to nearly black depending on angle. A uniformly gold-colored area reads as yellow paint; the variation is what makes it read as metal.
