I have had Photoshop Elements 4 for many years. I thought I'd take to it like a duck to water, but unfortunately that hasn't been the case at all. However, with the helpful posting of Trish Meyer to one of my calligraphy lists a few months back, I was finally able to tackle a task using PE4. With black sumi, I hand lettered the word Flourish, along with the little floral and wheat elements, onto white paper.
Using the instructions I had saved from Trish's post, I inverted the lettering from black to white.
Continuing with Trish's instructions, I combined my lettering with a background I had made in Victoria Pittman's Tortured Metals workshop.
I added some text and wahlah!... my new header. It was so gratifying to finally accomplish something in Photoshop Elements after all this time. Yay!..and "Thank you!" Trish.
