Creating artwork for single-level embossing
We want to enhance this little card by adding some embossing. Won't be very fancy. It will just be a little simple single level dye. And because that's our approach, I'm going to have to change a little bit about my art work. And here's why. Here where I have these two balloons overlapping, if they are embossed it's just going to make sort of a one blob with two lobes to it. It really look like two balloons. If we were going to create a multilevel embossing dye then we could emboss this balloon, push it up a little bit and then we could emboss this balloon at higher sculpture, you know, we push it in further into the paper, and that way we would see some distinction between the two balloons. But we're not going to do that. We just want to do something simple just to give it a little bit of visual interest, but we really don't want to get involved with the expense involved with a multilevel die. So, because of that,m I'm just going to modify my design. So I'm going to move this balloon…
