I guess I'm a bit confused and already did mine, I created a boarder using brushes I drug along the boarder to create the brushed edge was this correct?
ETA I’ve read though your first post slowly ( Sorry menopause has me in a brain fog) I did create mine correctly thank you.

can anyone tell me name of a brush to use that comes with either photoshop or photshop elements to use for this

kind o f surprised that full photshop has so few included brushes - my ancient pse10 has more
 
In the past if I wanted to ink up or darken the edges of the papers or ellies I've always used the burn tool (or dodge tool to lighten). Love learning a new way to do something :) Thanks!

PS comes with a lot of brushes, but they aren't preinstalled.

From the gear in the upper right corner, there should be a listing of brush types. You can add any of those to your pre-existing library of brushes. Make sure to select "append" to add them to your existing library (if you hit ok, it will overwrite and replace what you currently have). There are lots of choices, but "natural brushes 2" includes some watercolor brushes. HTH!

That's very strange your version doesn't have that option, my screenshot is from PS CC! I've never used PSE, only PS. Every version of PS I've used (CS2, CS5 and PSCC) has allowed me to load preset brushes.

@zanthia In photoshop CC you have the option to choose 'get more brushes'.
That takes you to the site of Adobe, log in and you can download a lot of brushes! Only for PSCC!

Well...At Least I Figured Out How To Do This Challenge In Photoshop Elements 2019!...I Just Got This Software As A Christmas Gift & Have Pretty Much No Idea How To Use It!...I Still Can't Figure Out How To Do Day 12's Hidden/Photo Challenge...Either Way...I Did Watch The Video & Wrote Down The Instructions On How To Do This Challenge & Away I Went...It Wasn't Working At First...But Then I Chose A Different Brush (Included In The Program) & Voila!...I Saw It Finally!...Personally...I Think I Perhaps Went Overboard A Little Bit...But I'm Happy With It For My First Time Trying This...

Maybe it's because I chose black, but this really did show up better when I was working on it in PS CC. Let me know if this is ok. I really did use a brush - 2 layers, in fact.
