It doesn't take long for one to familiarize herself with the user interface. There aren't many buttons to press, just five on the left side: Template, Photo, Text, Clipart, and Background. With the templates, you only have a few to choose from for each category of templates. You have more than a dozen of text arts and plenty of fonts at your disposal. The background selection is limited, and I couldn't upload my own background to use in the background tab.
