First Time Using Fondant - Alphabet Blocks for a Baby Shower

After having taken a few classes, I was feeling a little more confident to work with fondant. Here are the photos of my first go. 

Rice Krispies Squares are the most awesome material to build things with!!!! I covered mine in buttercream frosting before coating them in rolled fondant

Ta da! Fondant covered blocks!

I love the colours, though really any colour can be substituted.
Cut-outs were placed on the sides of the blocks except for one.
