Tips for using photoshop:

-Blur tool: helps dulling down sharp voxel edges in pictures to make it realistic.

-Layers: Don't edit the "background", put it in another layer until you like the changes and then "flatten" the image(and maybe blur so that the layers match better if it looks crappy).

-Paint/Pencil: I don't know if all versions have them in the same box. If it does, right click to choose between pencil and paint. Paint blends with the surrounding colors while pencil is used for sharp edges that don't blend(same thing that is done in Microsoft paint).

-color modes- If you look at the bar below the menu bar(File, View, Edit,...) you will see a set of words that say "color". If you look at them, there will be different tools. The very bottom one just changes the "tint" of the area painted on. For example, if you paint over a picture with this option on and the area will be black and white.

-The classic copy and paste: While the cameo is open, open, lets say it is the background, and select the area you want to be on the cameo. Go to Edit -> Copy. Then go back to your cameo, select Edit-> Paste. Make sure the layer you have choosen is below the main image. then resize the background, center it manually, then flatten.

I hope this helps because my fingers hurt now.
