I lay tinted, rolled fondant on the cake board. Then I take a ruler (plastic) and laying it on its side make lines to resemble the boards. I then lightly cut irregular lengths into the boards. Take the end of a toothpick and lightly...

Are you wanting to make your own mold, Linda, or are you wanting to locate a "baby" mold to purchase. I believe there is a tutorial on CC for mold making. I've never done it myself as there are so many wonderful molds available for sale.
