    yo war- my friend emailed me again with a bit more info on foil and emboss stuff. not sure if it will help at all but here's what she said:

    so re: foil stamping. not sure if
    you know this stuff, but some options to consider: you can deboss AND
    emboss at the same time you're doing the foil. (it's all the same
    heat/pressure process) there are a bunch of different color of foil available besides gold and silver. there's copper, red, blue, black, etc.
    there's also glossy, non-metallic stuff that looks cool on textured paper, esp. black. you can get pretty small type foil stamped. AND you can etch textures into the foil too! ok, whew, i'm gettin' a little excited over
    here.
