Christa, I have a lot to learn about using this technique but I love the look and definitely need to try again. Thanks for the challenge!!
 
Tracy in the screen shot for step 12 if you look at the layer pallet, you will see I am clipping my photo to the filled in rectangle. If you look at the filled in rectangle layer in the layer pallet there is a style attached to the filled in rectangle. I have added a white stroke to it and then added a shadow. I am using PS CC soI am adding the styles a double shadow but you can do that in PS if you have a prior version or in PSE too by setting your stroke and shadow then group your layer and then do another shadow to the group.

My workspace is 600X600 so my style settings are here:
in the thumb nails. I hope this helps.
