Abstract (en)
An improved multi-ply absorbent consumer paper product (12) includes a first ply of absorbent paper web (14) having a first substantially regular pattern of pixel-like projections defined thereon and a second ply of absorbent paper web (16) having a second substantially regular pattern of pixel-like projections defined thereon. The second ply (16) is laminated to the first ply (14) so that the pixel-like projections of the first ply (14) are positioned substantially in abutment with corresponding pixel-like projections of the second ply (16), to form projection couples. A glue/dye material (38) is positioned between the first (14) and second (16) plies to selected projection couples (50), but not elsewhere on the first (14) and second (16) plies, in a predetermined decorative pattern. This ensures that the decorative pattern is defined in pixel-like fashion and will visibly coincide with the interface between the (i) relative puffiness of the unglued areas and the (ii) relative compaction of the glued areas, creating a striking visual effect. A method of making the product is also disclosed. <IMAGE>
