I can't figure out what I am doing wrong. I can't change the color of the shape that I am embossing. My background is green, I am using a brush to stamp on a tree (the same green color) and then emboss it and the shape changes to gray with pink edges. Yikes !

Any suggestions?

first- how are you embossing the image?

this is what i do- i make sure that what i want embossed is on it's own layer, then i got to Layer>Layer Style>Bevel and Emboss. then i change the style (drop menu- probably says 'Inner Bevel' as the default) to Emboss. then i play with the settings until i'm happy.

i'm thinking that what you are doing is using the emboss filter- that's probably why the gray color with pink edges. otherwise- i have no clue!

The highlight and shadow COLORS are also set in the bevel and emboss menu, so make sure they aren't set to odd colors.

That is it ! Thanks a million, I was using the emboss filter, duh ! I will use bevel and emboss now. I knew that I had embossed a different way before.

Thank you so much!
