Ok, so I just learned how to make a blend that is basiclly the EXACT same thing as eraser but easier.

I am using these pictures:

Here is the tutorial:

First, you make sure that it is on pixels and type in 450 for width and 200 for height.

Make sure you are on button circled in pink. You should have something like this:
http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o151/Miley98/Tutorials/tutorialphoto2.jpg

Click ctrl-V. Now, using that button, drag the picture to the left side.

As you can see, it is a tad bit big. So move your picture up until you get to the bottom of the picture. Press shift

Still pressing shift, see the right bottom box of the picture? Well click on that with your mouse holding shift and drag it up.

Press the move button again and move it down. Then, get your other picture and do those same steps of resizing. Overlap the picture.

Click the selection brush.

Then chose which brush you want. I suggest soft round.

Then draw around your image. I have this:
http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o151/Miley98/Tutorials/tutorialphoto10.jpg

Then chose the size 30.
http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o151/Miley98/Tutorials/tutorialphoto11.jpg

Draw around the selection that you just did, and you will see that when you get to the selection it forms together.
http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o151/Miley98/Tutorials/tutorialphoto12.jpg

Then press Delete/Backspace
http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o151/Miley98/Tutorials/tutorialphoto13.jpg

Then press the dotted square(rectangular marquee tool)
http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o151/Miley98/Tutorials/tutorialphoto14.jpg

Click anywhere with the marquee tool.
http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o151/Miley98/Tutorials/tutorialphoto15.jpg

Then, press ctrl-v(after you've copied your third pic)
http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o151/Miley98/Tutorials/tutorialphoto16.jpg

Do those same steps. I got this:
http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o151/Miley98/Tutorials/tutorialphoto17.jpg

OPTINAL STEP: if you have some white left over, crop your picture.
http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o151/Miley98/Tutorials/tutorialphoto18.jpg

Click the move tool and you will have this:
http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o151/Miley98/Tutorials/tutorialphoto19.jpg

Do Layer>>Flatten Image and you will get something like this:
http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o151/Miley98/Tutorials/tutorialphoto20.jpg

I added a texture but you don't have to.
http://i119.photobucket.com/albums/o151/Miley98/Tutorials/tutorialphoto21.jpg

Add text and waala!!! You have a beginner blend! I added a few more effects:
