Hi I am looking for creative ways to emboss a pattern into 13 x 20 sheets of board stock (14pt - 24pt). Just want to use one pattern on a continual basis but was hoping there might be something out there other than a diecutting machine/letterpress.

Is there some kind of rotary machine that can do this assuming you get a roller made? Perhaps this is very expensive.

Any sight would be appreciated.

Thanks
