Finally playing with Photoshop Elements!

I bought Photoshop Elements several months ago and just haven't had much chance to play with it. This afternoon, I finally sat for a couple of hours and tried to figure out a few basic things. I've used Photoshop before in technology classes at work, but I've never used it outside of the class setting... meaning, of course, that I've never made anything that was covered in the classes "my own." So, here's my results... Pedestrian, I know, but leaps and bounds for me. Check out the kids' Halloween costumes!

B/W background to highlight "Hannah the Glamour Witch:"



The Clone Stamp to take out the doorknob and deadbolt in the picture, which were right above and below the Glamour Witch's hat brim on the right side of the picture:



That's how I spent my Sunday afternoon, or at least part of it!

I think you did a great job with the edits. It will be faster once you're more comfortable with the software.
