I am so excited because I finally was able to figure out how to install styles on my Mac with Photoshop Elements 9. So I went right to Scrapgirls and purchased lots of them. Now all I need to do is figure out how to use them. Could someone tell me what to do with SNU-SStyles Bubbles Glass 6301asl. I was able to apply it as a "element" on its own, but how do you make it look like a glass pebble over an item. In other words, how do you make it so you can see the item below it?

Try using it on a duplicate copy of the layer if you don't want it clear. Also, you may need to scale the style depending on what you have applied it to. I used it to make the title shiny on this page.

Try this:

1. Duplicate the layer that has the element you want to have under the glass pebble.
2. Apply the style to that top, duplicated layer.
3. Adjust as necessary
4. Merge the layers.

Hope that helps!

Thank you so much. It worked perfectly. I am relatively new to digital scrapbooking and Photoshop Elements. I found Scrapgirls about a week ago and LOVE it. I have purchased so many items, but now I need to learn how to use them!

Thank you very much, that was all it took - a duplicate layer.
