I finally decided to download several interesting brushes for Adobe; its been a slow process as I haven't installed the new hard drive yet...so nothing is working quite right. After several restarts, I finally managed to use some of them (grunge of course) for a card I am making....
Plus I found a tutorial on creating my own, though I could figure it out myself.
