<p>A laminated material comprises a layer (2) of a microcellular material capable of changing color upon the application of heat and pressure and having a layer of adhesive (3) bonded thereto. The laminated material can be used in a method of applying a decorative layer or motif (13) to a substrate (11) using a die (5). The die includes shaped projections (10) for heating and compressing the discrete areas of the microcellular material in order to change its color, and includes severing edges (9) for cutting the decorative layer or motif (13) from the laminated material.</p> |
