Thanks to all who gave tips for making leaves; I ended up mixing different shades of red, orange, gold, and purple fondant to acheive a marbled look; rolled it out thin and used leaf shaped cutters to cut out the shapes. I used an artificial leaf to imprint veins. Once dried I brushed a thin watery coat of bronze pearl dust on them. The cake is BC with milk chocolate ganache piped scrolls and border. TFL!
