Hot Stamping Embossing

What are some common house hold items that show examples of different kinds of printing techniques?

I am doing a project and i need items i can easily get that show examples of these kind of printing jobs; Flexography,Gravure, non-impact printing, Planography offset lithography, surprint, reverse, bleed, gray halftone image, four color halftone image, poor registration, die cutting, embossing, hot foil stamping, individual numbering. Any and every item will help.

These are types of printing I have had direct working experience with.Flexography: most frozen food especially vegetables and fruits come in plastic flexo printed bags, meats such as turkey ready to be cooked, select cheese packs. Heat set Offset Printing: Time, Sports Illustrated, People and Entertainment Weekly are just some of the many high end offset consumer magazines, all use four color halftone process on web presses. heat set web offset printing is for longer runs on coated papers. Inks used on offset web presses requires being heat set during printing. The printed web passes through ovens before entering the folder. This all takes place at very high speeds - 60,000 impressions per hour or higher. Web Rotogravure: Most of the ads you find in the Sunday paper as well as some catalogs, numbering and locations of stores can be utilized with Fudges which can be added to the gravure press units. Sheetfed Offset printing is generally used for short runs and specialized print work such as custom bird prints but they can also print magazines with short runs.
There is a lot here and I can only hope I have been of some help to you.

I'm trying to do some stamp embossing but it's not working..... why?

I'm trying to do some stamp embossing. I'm using embossing ink and embossing powder. But instead of buying a heat gun, I'm using a blow hair dryer (which blows pretty hot.) I have not been able to get the embossing powder to burn, and cause the paper to rise (I'm using card-stock.) I've tried holding the hair dryer to it for at least 5 minutes.

Am I not holding the hair dryer to the paper long enough? Is it possible that the embossing powder is not working?

I had the same problem with the embossing technique. BUT I WASNT USING A HAIR DRYER though lol. It was my first time doing this technique. Took me a couple of tries before I finally accomplished the technique. I recommend you buy a heat gun. A great one would be Marvy (its like long, burgendish glitter or so) You can type it in google Marvy Heat Gun & view results. I however bought mine using a 50% off ONE item coupon at Michaels a while back. It cost me around $11 for it instead of the full price. (cheap eh?). Heat Guns have their purpose. & Hair dryers have theirs. Stick to their main purpose. Obviously 5 minutes was way too long & no results occurred. Should be a couple of seconds before the powder starts to melt, not minutes. For further help with techniques on embossing I highly recommend using youtube.com & typing embossing techniques. A lot of searches will come up. Their very helpful. I have used a few to help me out when I stared this embossing thing. I'm not a pro at it yet, still working on it.

HTH, Good Luck
