A frequent task is to take two photos and stitch/blend them together using a blurred line (straight or curved.) I am hoping that there is a straightforward way to do this.
Would some one please take by the hand and lead me through an example?

Inkscape is a vector image editor. Photos are raster graphics, and you'll want to use a raster graphics editor for 99% of the tasks involving photos.
This page explains the differences between vector and raster graphics pretty well. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_graphics
Assuming that you still want to get those photos blended, I'd recomend heading over to http://gimp.org/ and trying that out. The Gimp is a raster image editor similar in purpose to Photoshop. The Gimp is Free though, so you can do what you want with it. :-)

That is helpful. I have used Gimp for years. The problem is that Gimp works in the RGB color model and for printing one needs CMYK. So I will look further.
Cinepaint is what you want, a GIMP derivative work which adds support for 16-bit channels and CMYK color amongst other improvements over the GIMP (used by movie studios too).

For stitching/blending photos I'd recommend hugin/enblend if you want to save yourself a bunch of work.
cheers
