I use Photoshop CS3

1) Open a photo and duplicate the layer.

3) In the box that open, use the sliders. Amount: 7% Radius: 250 pixels Threshold: 0

If you need a bit more punch, repeat this action. Use the opacity slider on the copied layer to control the look .

Enjoy!

Tried it in Elements 6 and just love it. Only change is to line 2) which reads Go to Enhance>Unsharp Mask. 1) and 3) remain unchanged.
Thanks Trudi
