@drkimchi007 No, how do you pronounce "bouquet"? I pronounce it "BOO-kay."

She pronounced it correctly. Maybe less emphasis on the "keh" but it's right.

ボケ.. like "bow" without the w sound, and then a short "keh."

@dsnorthern No, there is no "kay" sound in Japanese. け and ケ are pronounced as short "ke" as in "Kenneth."

To get "kay," you'd have to write it "kei." けい

Just had to comment because I'm really anal about spelling: I'm glad you actually spelled "boke" correctly. xD

I hate the spelling "bokeh" but since it's what used, it's what I have to go with so that people will understand what I'm talking about.

I'm a beginner on digital scrapbooking. I'm practicing on Photoshop Elements 7

I found some free Bokeh brushes online and have downloaded them.

My problem is, I have installed them, but don't know how to change the gray

colour to the gradient colour I want to use. Can you please make a turorial for us beginners, showing how to use custom Bokeh brashes? Greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!!!

Your pronunciation is incorrect. Bokeh is a Japanese word, and it is pronounced more similar to the word "bouquet."

As always you rock as do the tutorials.

[dsnorthern]

In Japanese there is no ke as in Kenneth. The ke is pronounced "Kay" as in O-"Kay."

Just the pronunciation tutorial is worth the whole series. Thanks so much.
