Thanks everyone--They all look great. Aren't we having fun!!!
Jeff, I never noticed that in CS3 but then again I really don't know to much about it. Looking forward to learning CS3 on PCEC!

Got to play with my family. Here is mine.

oops..
I added the Welcome Home
I made a few processing adjustment then used the buzz filer on a low setting. 40 I think?
Used one of the picture images in Graffi's fun effects.
Added a background from the artwork and effects. I am not sure if it came with Elements or if it was off of Jodi's disk.
Then added the stick pin and the date.

Here is my go at it - I cheated and just ran a couple of Panos actions. Did his sketch effect followed by "old paper." And for the second one I stopped the sketch effect part way through the action. And added one of Jodi Fry's border effects.

those look great. I never thought of stopping his actions before finished, that could lead to some interesting effects.

Hola Don,
there aren't really any instructions.
I cut out an image of a pumpkin and put a PNG file of the kittens onto it with the use of a mask.
The type was done using the Create Warped Text tool with a negative value to make it curve round the pumpkin. Then to give it a carved look I applied a simple emboss bevel and set it to down.
Me gusta mucha that you like it.
Hasta luego,
Kev.

You might like the "photoshop essentials" tutorials,they're pretty well written and easy to follow. I just posted a link in "Helpfull Links" along with a "basket weave" horse I ran across today. :P Its a pretty cool effect! I'll see if I can come up with something to put in there too.
