A quick Google search shows that at least one version of Elements has the refine tool (11). You can also find it by going to Select – Refine Edge in Photoshop, and maybe in Elements. There are all sorts of cool things you can do with the refine tool, but the smooth option is by far the most useful for shapes you plan to cut out. For example, feathering wouldn’t do us any good. I suspect that Elements will have all the tools I use for work with the silhouette, as most of those are basic tools. I’m very interested to see what you’re able to re-create!

You wrote this in record time! I for one am super excited for your series. I only have photoshop elements BUT your tutorial is still super helpful. For instance I know I can magic wand my background I just don’t think I can refine the edge (think..idk I’ll totally be checking that out soon!). So you just keep going with your photoshop magic and I’ll definitly be watching closely to see what I to can recreate! Thanks for the tutorial!!
