I see lots of curly letters made of Fondant that looks almost flat.. what are you using to create them?? A cutter? (like Silhouette) or cookie cutters?
Are you maybe talking about the Funky Letter tappits? Like in this photo? If so, that is what I used for this cake.
Somewhere I read a post to smack the tapit on the edge of knife or other surface - instead of snapping the tapit onto the table. Amazing how much better the letters fell out!! I roll out my fondant/gumpaste/modeling chocolate, etc. really thin too - sometimes too thin & don't get the details. Dusting your material with cornstarch is very helpful too.

That is interesting about snapping it on a knife or other surface. I wonder what makes it work better? I did have better luck with spraying cooking spray on my tappits, but it was still aggravating. I used the corn starch and powdered sugar the first time and that wasn't much better. Plus the fact that my letters were coated with a powdery substance, that wasn't easy to wipe off.
