How to use Styles and Effects in Photoshop
Photoshop Elements has some extra Effects listed in the menu to the right of the work space, which are used in a similar way to alter the look of photographs. Some will create textures or enhance text, while others add borders or create very exaggerated effects.
Blizzard
Use this effect to make a snow scene, perhaps for Christmas cards. Other Effects include Lizard Skin and Marbled Glass.
Oil Pastel
Use this to diffuse the tones of your image, except for the edge detail which takes on a dark, charcoal quality. This is one of Element's less extreme effects.
Photo Corners
Use this to apply photo album effects.
Recessed Frame
Once a selection is made, use this to make parts of an image stand out.
Spatter Frame
Use this for a hand-coated feeling
Foreground Color Frame
There are several "real" frames that can be added with simulated lightning, such as Wood, Metal, and in this case, the Foreground Color Frame. The exact color is determined by the Foreground Color choice in the Color Picker.
