“Casablanca Noir” (NAME)

Open the template, delete the top three (3) layers, and fix canvas size to 800 widths (height will follow) then save under new name.

Open the mask and resize to 900 widths, apply to paper 3 and then resize mask to 900 widths; add below the template layers and center align.

Open the tube, fix your layers, resize by 45% and add to the middle of Layer 6.

Merge layers 3 and 4 into one layer and replace with paper 3. Use paper 8 to replace Layer 5, after a 75% resize.

Merge Layers 1 and 2 together then use paper 6 to replace this layer. Use paper 5 to replace Layer 6.

On Layer 7, turn the circle white, add a new layer and then flood-fill with this colour code: FF607D. Add a grain of your choice and then remove inner and outer excess; merge both layers together.

Duplicate the tube layer and move one below the circle layer. Drop shadow the top layer, remove excess from the bottom layer, and then remove the lower half of the upper tube.

Add element 28, center align and drop shadow. Apply the Mura Meister's Copies settings below.

Add element 27 in the openings left by the copies setting. Add element 31 in four corners, and then add the Paint.Net Glow settings below to lighten the colour.

Add frame 3 to the upper left side, duplicate and then mirror and flip. Open element 27, resize by 80% and add above the tube layer, closer to her hand.

Open element 14, resize by 80% and add above the element 27 layer. Open element 9, mirror and then add below the two flower layers.

Open element 25, flip and add below the feather layer. Open element 5, mirror and add one below the element 27. Mirror the original back, and then add below the element 14 layer.

Open element 3, resize to 175 widths (height will follow) and add below the tube layer. Open element 28 again, resize by 50% and add above the element 3 layer.

Open element 11, resize by 50% and add below the element 14 layer. Open element 16, mirror, resize by 37% and then add below the tube's hand. Duplicate, move one above and carefully erase the top to expose hand (only).

Open element 12, resize by 75% and add below element 5 layer. Add element 34 over all template layers. Duplicate and drop shadow the bottom; on the top, use noise of your choice.

It was at this point that I pulled out my mask layer by the corners (carefully!) until it shows slightly. Drop shadow all layers, crop and/or resize to your needs and then add your name and copyright.
