Often we have to adjust these for the print techniques I use in my corporate gift business, for engraving, etching and embroidery (and similar). But there are more and more new print technologies that allow for the special effects so I am just now learning about how to use them effectively.

using some of these methods for embroidery will be almost impossible. I designed two versions of a logo one w/ solid colors and no effects for embrodery purposes.
Some print shops cant print the transparencies as they become solid colors so it all depends on your set up. I suggest testing it out before making any orders with overlays.

Buts here's my technique in creating one.
its composed of 2 layers.
1st layer is gonna be usually composed of 2-3 colors in gradient usually brighter colors
2nd layer will be used as the metallic style just move it a bit in to the left or right and a different set of gradients usually 5 colors will be fine and preferably darker color compared to the 1st layer.
Thats it
