Children will surely love to learn the alphabet with the Sesame Street Font cartridge because this gives a fun twist to the traditional letters. Each letter is available in both uppercase and lowercase, and each capital letter is illustrated with a character from the hit television show. Elmo holds big A while peeking out from behind the letter. Capital B is cradled gently by Big Bird who is shown smiling. Aside from grasping uppercase C, Cookie Monster also clutches a cookie in one of his hands. Elmo smiles as he clings to the letter D, while the letter E is presented with a flourish by the same character. Big Bird proudly shows off “F,” and a grinning Elmo displays big G. These first seven letters of the alphabet are just a teaser of the shapes that the cartridge contains. The three Sesame Street characters are drawn with the rest of the letters.

Aside from the basic letters, the Sesame Street Font cartridge also includes numbers, basic shapes (such as circle, square, and triangle), and symbols (like parentheses). These numbers, symbols, and basic shapes are also drawn with the three characters. As an added bonus, the cartridge also features Elmo, Big Bird, and Cookie Monster as shapes in themselves, just like the shapes in the Sesame Street Friends cartridge. The Elmo shapes include his face, Elmo enjoying a book, Elmo in a blue circle and waving, Elmo in a blue circle and smiling. Cookie Monster’s face is also available as well as other shapes that depict him sitting down while holding up a cookie and beaming and Cookie Monster in a diamond with cookies. Just like Cookie Monster and Elmo, Big Bird’s face is also one of the shapes in the cartridge. Other Big Bird shapes include Big Bird sitting as well as Big Bird peeking out from a blue circle.

There are shapes like romantic swirls, hearts and a variety of flora-inspired that may be ideal for Valentine’s Day. There are stars, snowflakes and other patterns that may be used for Christmas-themed projects. People just need to choose the fitting colors for their paper and these shapes are suddenly transformed into something else. For instance, if the different shapes of leaves and flowers used black and orange paper, it can also be perfect for Halloween. There are also abstract shapes that can be used for any kind of adornment such as creating labels for people’s things, designing any type of greeting card or accentuating an invitation.

Most people love using these adornments to make their albums more interesting to look at. There are times that people put these shapes on the pages of the album randomly. Other times, they are lined to form a pattern that would serve as a border for a photo or the entire page. These can also serve as the space to write details about the photo. There are some who also like the idea of putting cutouts in framed pictures as they add depth because of the layering. It is really up to the person doing the projects on how they would like to use these cutouts.

These cutouts from Accent Essentials have the creative feature of shadow. This feature makes it possible to have layered cutouts. Layered cutouts would look more textured especially when the colors used are well thought of. For instance, a metallic gold paper for the shadow combined with a dark red paper for the main cutout would completely have a different effect. People can take time in discovering using different kinds of papers and combinations of the symbols to fully appreciate this cartridge.

This Cricut Cartridge features foundations keys. This can be used to create a solid version of the shapes in the cartridge. This can be useful for creating thank you cards, or layering shapes to create your own special card.

The 6 creative features on the Locker Talk Cricut Cartridge are:

1. Layers
2. Phrase / Layers
3. Card
4. Book Cover
5. Shadow
6. Blackout

Blackout is featured on all Cricut cartridges so I will not talk about it here. Shadow is another common creative feature and it creates a solid version of the shapes which is useful for layering. Layers splits the shapes into it’s most basic shapes allowing you to cut each shape in a different color, or texture. This allows a very 3D look to your project and it is easy to do! Phrase / Layers will cut a phrase and the background for that phrase allowing another way to add a layered custom look to your scrapbook.

Card and book cover are similar in that they create a large solid block with a small cutout shape. The holes, however, are located in different spots allowing them to be used in different ways. With Book cover, the holes are located on the left hand side of the card. You can run string or ribbon through the holes and create a neat book scrapbooking project. With Card, the holes are located in the middle of the card which allows it to be folded neatly in two and attached to whatever you wish.

Overall, Locker Talk provides a significant value for your creative scrapbooking dollar. You will not be disappointed by this purchase!
