Step 1
Open the Flower photo in PS, got to the View tab and select to view Rulers. Now using the Move Tool[Cursor] drag lines from the rulers and define your wanted shapes. Like I've made here.
Next we'll select the Rectangular Tool. Make selection around the wanted shape and make it as a new layer by using the Layer via Copy option. You should get something like those.
Step 2
Now Open the Dark Wood Stock in PS. Get back to your Flower workspace and copy each layer to the Dark Wood image workspace by clicking the layer with CTRL+L.Mouse then press
CTRL+C to copy the layer you selected and finally CTRL+V
to paste the selected layer in the Dark Wood workspace, do this for the next 2 layers you wish to transfer.
Now to resize the copied layers you need to select the layer,
then select the Free Transform tool, and resize it [Dont forget to check this little thing before you resize:
It's located on the top bar below the menu bar.
resize it to about 30% do this for the next 2 layers.
After you've resized and rearranged the copied layers you can add
a Stroke effect by using the Blending Options..
Set the stroke size to 1,Stroke outside,color-White
Do this for the next 2 layers, by using Copy&Paste Layer Style
option. Now add some shadow to the layers by using the Blending Options.. set Angle to 90.
Step 3
Merge all 3 layer together and duplicate the merged layer,
now using the Free Transform tool Flip the duplicated layer and rearrange it so it will look like here:
Next add a Layer Mask to the duplicated layer,
select the Gradient Tool
make a gradient on the Layer mask to get the final result.
DONE.
