Thanks Penny!

Okay, here is my entry for the Paperless Card. I hope ya'll like it. In keeping with the Christmas spirit, I made a Christmas card of a plastic transparency and used faux metal for the front. (Just fyi, faux metal is glossy cardstock which is colored with alcohol inks. It was a case of using what I had on hand.)
I modified Penny Duncan's screen door card for the front, and used her little hinges (all in faux metal) for an old-fashioned look. (Thank you, Penny!)
I wasn't sure how stamping would turn out on the acrylic, but it worked just fine with stayz-on ink. I came across a snarled length of fine copper wire in one of my little drawers, and decided it would make a nice wreath. I just made a hole and smushed it into a wreath shape.
Now to see if I can upload the photos...

All you ladies are putting me to shame. Lovely work by everyone! Here is my feeble attempt. First, when Tyler said a small stack, I took that to mean a small stack of metal sheets, not that the individual pieces were small. So I ran my metal sheet (the quickkutz sheets I purchased eons ago) through the roller embossing machine. Then, I stamped the image on the front (I used the sheep from a SU set that is a christmas set). Now since the ink was not Stazon, I figured to go over it with glossy accents, that will act to seal in the ink so it would not smear, and topped it with a little glitter. The acetate sheet was spray painted by Krylon Fusion spray paint, which is a special spray paint made just for plastic. Cut it down to size on the guillotine trimmer. Hand scored it on the martha board, then took my 4 x 4 piece, used a punch and stamped the inside sentiment. For this challenge I used no cutter at all.

I learned with the metallic sheets, it can scratch quite easily, so I am not sure how to avoid that. However, luckily, the macro lens catches more than the naked eye can.........yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.........
