Abstract: A multi-function media embellishing template and a system and method of embellishing media with the template is provided. The template includes a body having a media abutment surface and an aperture in the media abutment surface extending through the template, and an embellishing wall extending from the media abutment surface and terminating in an embellishing surface. The media embellishing template can be formed by exposing first and second sides of a template blank not covered by a resist to etchant, etching the surface of the first side to form a media abutment surface and an embellishing wall extending from the media abutment surface and terminating in an embellishing surface, and etching the surface of the second side not covered by the resist to form at least one aperture extending through the template.
