Katrina from Pugly Pixel offered up some neat
arrow and ribbon labels on her blog this week. But I quickly realized that Photoshop Elements doesn't offer the option to "Load Shapes" in the program like the full version of Photoshop. Here's a quick tutorial on how to load Pugly Pixel's shapes in Photoshop Elements.
Download the zipped files and copy the CSH file by using Ctrl+C.
Locate the Custom Shapes folder. { Program Files > Adobe > Photoshop Elements 8.0 (or whatever version you have) > Presets > Custom Shapes } Paste the CSH file by using Ctrl+V and rename the file, if desired.
Open Photoshop Elements and use your new custom shapes!
If you have any questions, just let me know if the comments.

Thanks Katrina! I figured that other people might have the same confusion as I did when they realize that there is no "load shape" option in Elements!
thank you! I would have spent hours trying to figure this out.
thank you very much <3
Hey Sarah!!
For Mac users the path is:
macintosh hd, applications, adobe photoshop version #, Support file, presets, custom shapes
Without your walk through process I would have never found it on mine, thanks!!
