this is because you are in the maximized view. click on Windows, Images, then chose either tile or cascade so that multiple windows show up at the same time. NOW click on the thumnail of the item in the layers palate (at the right, not below) and drag this into your new document and it should add it to the new document as a new layer. This is the key to PSE, getting the layers into your new document. You can edit the items (pics etc) by resizing them or adjusting the color, contrast etc before you bring them into the new document.

Oh and make sure the new document is 300 dpi not 72 (the default) or you will not end up with printable stuff! When you drag your pics etc into the new document it will automatically bring them in as 300 dpi.

Hope that helps, if you get stuck, let us know!
