Welcome to the forum Michelle. You will need to attach an image so you can get the help you need. As you can see I have moved this post to "Post Processing" where I hope you get the help you seek.

Looks like you removed too much of the background. And the foreground, too. :)

Take a look at Layer Masks for a non-destructive method to make changes:

Way underexposed I think. All the detail is lost :-) Michelle don't be embarassed - we've all done it! Edit your original post and submit the image again (making sure before you upload it that it is less than 100k in size).

Cheers
Jim
