Zen Gardens Make Me Angry

Well, this is my first Threadcakes entry ever. I have a couple more ideas for this year, if I can find the time. I chose an easier design to work with first, as I'm not a seasoned cake decorator, and have never sculpted with fondant before. I didn't want to jump head first into a work of art without knowing my material first!

I made this cake over two days. I sculpted the fondant pieces on the first day while watching "DC Cupcakes", and baked the cake; then I iced and assembled it on the second day, while listening to "Through the Wormhole with Morgan Freeman." Enlightening stuff to think about while I meditate in my zen garden!
