Thankyou Heaterguy. There are some amazing effects to be gained by playing in PSE although I really prefer the natural thing.

Thankyou Martha. While I wouldn't use these often, it was quite interesting to see what effects could be gained by playing around with PSE.

Your wish is fulfilled. All are very much enjoyed. Your PP touch is so artistic and tasteful--not over the top--just right!

I have PhotoShop Elements 5.0 which I believe is totally different to what you have. I went into Special Effects/Filters/Charcoal & then in the drop down box, Poster Edges. Quite an effective treatment. Sorry I can't help further. Good Luck!
