2. create a new layer, on this in the middle drag a square box using your selection tool, fill this with #323847 3. using your circle tool drag out a shape closer to the top of this new square (try to get it like shown below) delete this selection from your new box. 4. in the newly formed spherical gap drag out a (smaller) selection and on a new layer fill it with #323847 5. create a new layer and drag it down to just above your background. bring up your gradient tool (right click paint bucket!) and change it to white-transparent (in this order, check reverse is OFF) and radial gradient. 6. make a square selection over your centered box, then subselect the box layer (hold ctrl+alt and click the box layer) then subselect the ovular shape inside the box too. 7. bring up this layers blending options and apply this outer glow. 8. now apply this gradient overlay: #B46C10 to #FD550B linear. 9. duplicate this layer, then flip it vertically (edit>trasform>flip vertically) and place it just below the origonal layer, the lower the opacity to 48%. 10. I applied a small white overlay layer and some text, play around until you get what your happy with!
