There are several ways to do it.

1. Make a "New Adjustment Layer" (Under the Layer Menu) so you can experiment with it, choose Levels. Then mess around with the sliders until you like the look of it.

or

2. Create a new layer. Fill it with white. Then adjust the opacity of it - in the layers menu, where it says "100%" you can change that number, or use the slider.

Debbie, I tried making it a bit brighter, but I'm sure it can get much better. However, to get it perfect, you need to work on the darker and lighter sections individually. Is this the original? I see it's 180 dpi. If you want to print it out, I think you want it at 300.

Thanks so much everyone. What I was looking for is what Poofy did - thank you! I will try playing around with it because this is not the first time I've wanted to do something like this and if I play around myself, I might actually learn how to do it.

Randi, thanks for the tip on printing. I did try and print these out for Christmas cards and it turned out really crappy - now I know why.
