A fancy article for use as greeting gifts such as greeting cards. The article comprises a metal sheet such as a tin plate having on its front surface an imprint of an image of a picture, design or other visible representation, or a combination thereof, and a planar writing medium fixedly disposed on a back side of the metal sheet such that one of opposite surfaces thereof faces toward the back surface of the metal sheet. The planar writing medium is made of a material suitable for writing on the other surface thereof. The metal sheet is preferably formed with a peripheral rib so as to define a shallow receptacle which is filled with a suitable filler. The filler has the planar writing medium or is covered with the same. The writing medium may be provided on a backing sheet member in which is embedded the metal sheet, so that the peripheral portions of the backing sheet member form a frame for the image carried on the metal sheet.
