To create the embossed effect, I started by turning the picture into black and white, where the white areas would pop out. Then, I made a special brush using this black and white picture as its texture.

Since I’m not using it as a repeating pattern, I changed the settings from “Tiled” to “View Plane + Anchored.”

With this customized brush, I drew on a flat surface that I had divided into many small sections. This gave me a cool raised effect, like i created my own stamp!
