Applying Effects with the Smart Brush
Using the Photoshop Elements new Smart Brush, you can apply special effects with a paintbrush, putting them right where you want them and nowhere else. It’s a great tool for cleaning up snapshots with a minimum of fuss.
With an image open in the Editor’s Full Edit mode, click the Smart Brush tool.
Choose an effects category from the pop-up menu at the top of the Smart Paint palette.
Click an effect to apply.
Paint over the area to which you want to apply the effect.
To remove an area from the selection, click the Remove from Selection brush.
Paint over the area that shouldn’t have the effect.
To modify the settings, double-click the Pin in the image window or the layer’s thumbnail in the Layers palette.
Make your changes and click OK.
