E-WALLPAPER - Process 2 (Layering)

Step 1 : I choose a red curtain image for my background.




Step 2 : I use the Rectangular Marquee Tool to select the part that i want for my background. After that, i drag the image by pressing ctrl+left click to the A4 e-wallpaper.




Step 3 : I drag the red curtain layer to below layer 4 as the background of the image. 




Step 4 : I deleted layer 4 which is the Globe because i think it does not match with my e-wallpaper. Then I use Horizontal Type Tool to add text inside.
