Would I be able to use Adobe Photoshop Elements to do these tasks?

*Let it Snow* asked:


I’d like to learn Adobe Photoshop to improve my old photos and make collages, but I’m not sure if I need the complete and more expensive Adobe Photoshop version, or if I can use the more affordable Photoshop Elements. Specifically, I’d like to:

1. Change a photo from color to black and white or sepia tones.
2. Put together a collage of all of my pets (from different photos) and create a nice landscape background from another picture (or make a border of flower photos), blurring / blending the edges of their individual faces into the rest of the picture so it looks nice (and not like a hand-made “cut and paste” collage).
3. Change the color of a background, but not the subject. I have a picture of an orange tabby in front of a red brick wall. I like how he and his shadow looks, but the bricks are too close to his fur color. I’d like to change the color so he stands out better.
…plus a few other ideas I have in mind for potential projects…

Thank you so much for any advice on which program I need. :)
