The watercolour effect shown below has been produced using Photoshop layers, filter effects and layer blend modes. No other filters have been used in the creation of the example below other than those that are already a part of Photoshop or Photoshop Elements.

Check out further examples below using the same techniques and different filter effects.

Note, while working on this technique, make sure you view your image from time to time at the size you wish to print it. When working with images on screen, smaller than their physical size, the effect we are creating can look a little cramped. It is also best to ensure that the resolution of the image is no larger than about 120. If you are using a high resolution digital camera the high number of pixels captured can have a detrimental affect on this technique.
