I made this card for Sharon's Stamp Simply Challenge #106 which was to include leaf images on our creation: Blogs at Splitcoaststampers
It is also for Lynn's Potluck Friday Challenge on StampTV which this week to choose an item of clothing or accessory we can't live without and include an image of it on our card: http://stamptv.ning.com/
My other passion besides stamping is making jewelry so I decided to use this as my key accessory. I created a leaf charm bracelet using charm stamps from Melanie Muenchinger's A Charmed Life stamp set. I got the idea from a charm card Melanie made with her set. I stamped the leaf charms with Memento Rich Cocoa directly onto different colors of Basic Grey Indian Summer DP. I cut them all out (!) and covered them in Glossy Accents to look like glass beads. Added a tiny gem to the tops of each. The bracelet is gold cord with a gold brad for the clasp.
Thanks, Sharon, for the great challenge and TFL!

Carla, I love this pretty leaf charm bracelet. I had to really look and read your deets. I thought that those little charms were brads. Great idea and great card.
