The present invention provides a process for manufacturing a metalized micro-embossed plastic film using a shim made from a flexographic plate. A digital image is transferred to the flexographic plate and the flexographic plate is processed to create a shim having a raised image corresponding to the digital image. A film is embossed by extruding the film across the flexographic plate, creating a micro-embossed surface in the film. The micro-embossed surface of the film can further be metalized to enhance the visual effects of the image when viewed from the non-embossed surface of the film.
