Sheet metal bracket: create a bend over an embossment

Is it possible to create a bend over an embossment (see pics)?  I have tried using the forming tool in several ways to do this but nothing seems to work.  It also seems like a sketched bend over an embossment won't work. 

 

It doesn't seem like a difficult manufacturing procedure because I found a couple of real life examples of brackets being bent over an embossment via a simple Google image search. 

 

Am I missing something?  Are there any work arounds?

 

Any assistance in this topic would be greatly appreciated. 

 

Thanks in advance.
