Make an emboss stamp for paper to 3D print.
Text or logo, 6 shapes, 5 press depths, one piece with its hinge.
The Emboss Stamps generator makes a folding press: two leaves joined by a hinge, with your text or logo raised on one side and the matching recess on the other. Squeeze paper between them and the design stands up from the sheet. The whole press prints in one piece, hinge included, without supports.
How to make an emboss stamp
Add the design
Text, a logo SVG, or both. Letter height 4 to 30 mm; logo height 6 to 80 mm.
Pick the shape
Rounded, stadium, circle, cloud, scallop or ricrac. The size fits the design, or you set the leaf length (20 to 120 mm) and width yourself.
Choose the press
Paper, light paper, deep paper or card set the relief and the room round the letters; custom lets you set both.
Export and print
Download the file and print it as it lies: both leaves and the hinge in one go.
What you can change
- Relief
- 0.4 to 2 mm, with 0.15 to 0.8 mm of room round the letters so the paper is not cut.
- Leaves
- 3 to 8 mm thick; the design sits 6 to 40 mm from the hinge and can be moved.
- Fonts
- The same 11 fonts as the other generators.
Where it is used
- Wedding invitations and place cards.
- A small brand's mark on bags, tags and cards.
- Notebooks, bookplates and stationery gifts.
Questions
Does it need supports?
No. The press, hinge included, prints in one piece without supports.
Can I use my logo?
Yes, as an SVG, alone or with text. You must hold the rights to the logo.
How thick a paper does it emboss?
Pick paper, light paper, deep paper or card; each sets a matching relief and clearance.
What file do I get?
A 3MF, which keeps each colour as its own object for a multi-colour printer, or an STL. Every file is checked before it downloads: closed (watertight) geometry, a single shell and walls thick enough to print.
Is it free?
The free plan gives 3 designs a month on each generator. Selling the printed pieces needs the Seller or Studio plan, which include the commercial licence.
Licence
On the Free and Maker plans you may print your designs for yourself and as gifts, not for sale. Selling the printed pieces needs the Seller or Studio plan, which include the commercial licence and a licence certificate for each design. Pieces made during the free beta, before paid plans launched, may still be sold on the terms of that time. The exported files themselves can never be resold or redistributed, on any plan.
