My biggest challenge in the leaf making department is getting the edges to look right. My first one, I didn't cover the sand with plastic. Big mistake. Don't even go there. Did you have any tricks to having your edges looking good?
In your leaf directions, though, don't forget that if you want the topside of the leaf to be the part cast in the concrete, the leaf needs to be face up, not face down.

Made several 'basalt' type rocks this morning. here's a photo of one of them. I didn't use hypertufa on this kind, just the mortar mix with black colorant, and a 4 inch knife for smoothing the flat surfaces.
