De-bossing & embossing
Embossing and debossing are two techniques used to imprint impressed or depressed images onto paper. Embossing is a raised design. The raised area can have ink applied to it, foil applied, or it can be left. When an embossed area is not printed or foil stamped it is known as a blind emboss.
Debossing is the opposite of embossing. With debossing, the imprinted design causes depressions in the material leaving a debossed imprint of the image on the stock.
Vinyl
To create a vinyl print finish - rub the vinyl firmly on the project, then lift the transfer paper, carefully making sure that all the vinyl is stuck down. Use the silhouette scraper to transfer the vinyl to a clean dry surface.

Varnishing
Varnish is a transparent protective finish. It can be used in wood finishing but also for other materials, such as paper, shown in the publication below. This finish creates a glossy texture.
Foiling
Foilong is the application of a metallic foil, often gold or silver, to paper where a heated die is stamped onto the foil, making it cling to the surface leaving the design of the die on the paper. Foil stamping can be combined with embossing to create a more striking 3D image. Like this page below:
