( 21 ) Open your background layer. Go to, Image canvas size and use these settings, Width 600 Height 450 and make sure 'right' has 150 written in it. We are wanting the extra 150 pixels to be on the right of our canvas.
( 22 ) Move the merged layer to the left till the side tip of the first triangle touches the side.
( 23 ) Go to your background layer and floodfill with white.
( 24 ) Make sure you are now on the merged layer. Take your preset shape tool same settings as before and draw a rectangle matching the frame of your first merged layer pic whereby you are covering the triangles down the right side frame of your first Image, and then to the outside of your layer. Please see my image below. ( This is reduced in size but you can see what I mean.) Convert to a raster layer.
( 25 ) Duplicate this layer and then resize this layer by 80%. Move this box over into the center of your first box after you have resized.
( 26 ) Close off your background and merged pic layer and merge these two boxes visible.
( 27 ) With your magic wand select the inside of the larger box.
( 28 ) New Layer. Drag this layer below your box layer and flood fill with your dark color. Keep Selected.
( 29 ) New Layer and with your foreground on your light color stamp your brush inside the selection. Selections select none.
( 30 ) Back to your boxes layer and select inside the smaller box. Selection modify and expand by 2.
( 31 ) New layer, drag it under your boxes layer, copy and paste your full picture into the selection. selections select none.
( 32 ) Close off your background and your first merged pic layer and merge visible.
( 33 ) Go to your background layer and floodfill with your dark color.
( 34 ) Open all layers. Now you can fiddle with the two pics, using your deform tool make sure they are set right. See my Image. Sharpen them after you have fixed them.
( 35 ) Make sure you are on your large pic layer and you can if you want although it isn't necessary( I didn't on my large Image but did on the one below) add this dropshadow, vertical 3 Horizontal 3 Opacity 70, Blur 5, Color Black. Repeat with Vertical and horizontal on -3 and Shadow On A New Layer Checked. On this shadow layer take your Eraser at size 86, Shape Square, opacity and hardness 100 and take away the shadow down the left side of the image.
( 36 ) Make sure you are on your background layer.
( 37 ) New Layer and with your forground color on your light color stamp your brush in the dark color area where there is no brush marks.
( 38 ) Merge all layers visible.
( 39 ) Now you may see a little line at the top and bottom between the two pics.
( 40 ) Take your clone tool with these settings, size 32, hardness 46, step 25, opacity 100 and clone these areas from just beside them.
( 41 ) Merge All.
( 42 ) Image, add borders 6, white. Select this border, expand by 2 and floodfill with your dark color. Keep Selected.
( 43 ) Go to effect 3d effects, outer bevel with these settings, Bevel no.7, Width 3, Smoothness 1, Depth 17, Ambience 9, Shininess 8, Angle 352, Intensity 42, Elevation 29. Selections select none.
( 44 ) Resize to your original size 600x450. Sharpen and add your signature if you like and you are done.
