3. Paste frame 01 above the mask layer. Resize to 80% position slightly to the right side. Using magic wand tool, select inside frame. Go to Selections - Modify - Expand - 5.

4. Paste paper 4 below frame. Invert selection (ctrl/shift/I) then hit delete, and select none (ctrl/D). Give frame a drop shadow.
