It is not possible to open the seal. I recommend embossing on round labels and attaching them to whatever you want. My embosser is one of my favorites.
Yes, you can change it up as much as you want. I'll send you a template file to choose from once you've placed your order. I can do the rectangle on two lines instead of three if you want it that way. br>If you have any further questions, please contact me. Thank you very much, br>br>br>br>br>br>br>

Letterheads cannot be embossed from behind. It's too shallow to come from the bottom, and it's facing the wrong way from the top.

I put the embosser to the test on some standard copier paper (20) and could hear the engraving punching through the paper even when I wasn't pressing it hard enough; the "punched effect" was confirmed when I held the paper up to the light. When I sandwiched the paper between some soft tissue papers, it seemed to be protected. To make a good impression, I could then press down fairly hard.
This embosser was something I really wanted to fall in love with. I meant it when I said I did it. However - This is not at all what I'm looking for. To emboss, squeeze the handle until it "clicks," then let go. Okay, so instead of embossing my logo, it cuts out about a third of it! On regular paper, the embossing is far too aggressive to use. When I tried it on card stock, the impression didn't go all the way around (and no matter how hard I squeezed, there was no "click"). I tried embossing on linen paper and found that it cut out the logo even more than plain paper. If you squeeze the handle a little more gently (i. e. If you don't hear a "click," you won't get the full picture. br>br>Even the sample of your embossed logo that's included in the case shows that the paper was literally punched through in several places, but Quality Control decided to send it out anyway. This isn't supposed to be a paper PUNCH, I'm sorry! What a pity, because I had planned to use this on some new letterhead for my interior design firm. I'm not going to use it for anything business-related right now. Because it's my company's logo, the entire device is rendered useless. br>br>Back to square one, trying to come up with a better solution.
During my search on Amazon, an embosser was suggested to me. What a wonderful and elegant concept! To have my and my spouse's initials and addresses placed in an elegant design, I chose the Shiny embosser because of its high quality appearance and ease of ordering (template). This company also offers custom designs (using any font, for example). My embosser came in a nice box with clear instructions. It has a nice weight to it, a gleaming metallic finish, and a plate that appears to be alabaster but, in its elegance, recalls old wax seals. Because there is no paper or even ink involved in placing a return address on an envelope with this method, it appears to be a unique touch when addressing an envelope and preferable to using the best address labels. There will be no need to reorder labels with this embosser because it will last forever. I'm pleased with myself because I'm using less paper as a result, and my envelopes remain beautiful.
I was hesitant to order this after reading some of the reviews, but I am glad I did because I have nothing but positive things to say about it. It arrived several days ahead of schedule, which was nice, and it does the job perfectly, though it does take some trial and error to figure out how much pressure to use on various types and thicknesses of paper. Yes, it can pierce thin or cheap paper, but that's to be expected. Years ago, I paid at least twice the price for one of these from a specialty catalog, and this one is just as good. I've used it on all of my greeting cards and correspondence, and it looks fantastic, and I've received a lot of positive feedback. The most appealing feature of the featured design, in my opinion, is that it allows you to use two people's first initials without having to worry about who's last name you want to use. My friend recently witnessed it in action and has decided to purchase one for herself. That is why I have come - to help. to send the link to her - I decided to leave a review as well!.
The embossed seal sample that came with my order left a good impression. However, the hand-held gadget did not work well when I tried to make an impression on gold seals for invitations. The manufacturer did not respond to my request for a more powerful device.
This embosser is absolutely fantastic! It leaves a colorless impression on paper and can be used for a variety of purposes. I enjoy the look of pretty lettering on Christmas cards and usually write them by hand. However, this gives an envelope a touch of class without taking away from its personal touch. All of my books' front pages are embossed as well. br>I haven't tried anything particularly thick, but an envelope does the job admirably. It took me a minute to figure out how to insert the embossing plate into the handle, but once I realized the slots on the plate aligned with the holder, it was simple. I'm very happy! br>Did this review prove to be beneficial to you?.
My only issue is that the top half of the right side isn't very crisp or clear (unfortunately, this is where my name and our last name appear). I emailed the company, who asked me to take photos and then sent me instructions on how to properly install the pad, which I did (it clicks right in, so that's not the issue). They were quick to respond, but I'm guessing that didn't leave a lasting impression. I was hoping to use it for wedding invitations, but it's still fine for regular use. It's a bit of a letdown. Though they did respond to a couple of emails, I didn't get the assistance I needed from their support staff.
Heavy craft paper should not be used. I like this embosser, and for the price, it's a good way to personalize my stationery without having to spend a lot of money or purchasing additional materials. I recommend reading the instructions thoroughly and keeping in mind that the project is only intended for 24 sheets of paper, not heavy craft paper. It arrived in three business days after I ordered it online with the requested customized information. It took some practice, so don't use your best paper until you've tried it out a few times (round one is the most difficult to align). Apart from the small font size (which makes it difficult to read if there are too many characters on a single line), you get exactly what you entered and it is delivered quickly. Note: I wish they had included information on how to maintain, clean, and care for the die.
