When it comes to this step, we will have to solve a little problem with the shadow effect that not only appears with the center piece of paper but also with the white border on the outside. But here, we just need to apply this effect to the main piece of paper. And to fix it, you need to convert the Layer Style layer Into the corresponding separate layers. It sounds complicated, but actually quite simple, right-click ( Windows ) + Click or Control + click (Mac ) directly on the Layer Effect layer As shown below:

Select Create Layer From the menu displayed:

Photoshop will automatically convert the Layer Style Into a new layer called Layer 1's Outer Glow Just below Layer 1:

And draw a quadrilateral around the whole image as follows:

Use menu Filter> Distort> Pinch:

This effect will 'push' the balls towards the center of the image, while distorting the details here:

Click OK To apply changes and close this Pinch Window. Our results will look like this:

Press Ctrl + D (Windows) or Command + D (Mac) to remove the selection

To reduce the 'density' of this shadow effect, we need to change the Opacity Parameter, which you can choose between 80 - 85% Is appropriate. Here we leave 82%:

After applying changes:

Next, we will then Layer 2:

Create a new layer above this Layer 2 :

Since the Layer Outer Glow Is applied to Layer 2, Photoshop will automatically create a new Layer in the same way:

Next, select the Brush Tool:

When we reach this step, we will color the areas of the outer edges of the paper. Press D To switch the Foreground And Background Colors to default:

With the Brush Tool selected, paint the edges around the edges of the paper as follows:

Continuing with all the paper sticking out, there is no need to worry if the color is too bold because we can correct it later:

Next, press Ctrl + T (Windows) or Command + T (Mac) To use Photoshop's Free Transform Feature, then rotate so that it matches the original pattern frame (hold Shift to not change the click ratio ruler):

Select the Layer Styles Icon at the bottom of the control panel and choose the Drop Shadow Effect from the list. Change the Angle And Distance Parameters in the Layer Style Panel so that it is appropriate and creative:

Continue, change the Opacity in Drop Shadow To 60%:

Click OK To apply the change and close this Layer Style Window:

Select the Layer Mask Icon at the bottom:

A thumbnail layer appears next to the selected Layer :

After that, select the Brush Tool And the Foreground Color is black to create a shadow around the original part of the fist:
