Graphics.com has an excellent photoshop tips tutorial on Converting a Photo into a Sketch with Photoshop Elements:
'I learned this technique from Rich Harris, the former creative guru over at Wacom Technologies. He sent me a bunch of PDFs with some special effects he had come up with, and this one just blew me away, so I asked Rich if I could include it in my Photoshop Elements 3 for Digital Photographers book. It does the best job I've seen yet of converting a photo into a color pencil sketch.Open the photo you want to convert into a color sketch. Duplicate the Background layer by going to the Layer menu, under New, and choosing Layer via Copy (or by pressing Control-J). Hide this duplicate layer (Layer 1) by going to the Layers palette and clicking on the Eye icon to the left of this layer. Now click on the Background layer.'
