Download the template, resize to 900 widths and then do a canvas resize to 1000 widths.

Delete the credits and then heartbeat word art layers.

(Note: do not delete any of the original template layers when you replace them.)

Open ljs-melancholy_unicorn, resize by 40% and add above all layers.

Open ljs-melancholy-pp1, resize by 20% and replace the ellipse center layer. 

Open ljs-melancholy-pp2, resize by 20% and replace the other ellipse layers.

Open ljs-melancholy-pp3, resize by 20% and replace the rectangle middle grey layer.

Merge all back rectangle layers. Open ljs-melancholy-pp4, resize by 22% and replace this layer.

On ALL original layers (except the black rectangle layer in the back) add an outline x8 (R:84 / G:81 / B:83) with the colour 545153 and then add a normal noise setting.

On the black rectangles layer (back), do the same but outline by 3.

Merge all the heart layers. Duplicate, outline the bottom layer x2 with white and add a noise setting. Use ljs-melancholy-pp1, after a 20% resize, to replace the upper layer.

Open ljs-melancholy_words, resize by 65% and add below the "beat beat beat" layer.

Open ljs-melancholy_flower, resize by 27% and add above all layers; center align and drop shadow now.

Use the Mura Copies setting below to create a circle and then move below the ellipse center noise layer.

Duplicate and use the rotation settings below.

Add any finishing touches you'd like to see now and drop shadow all layers.
