To complete the effect, create a new layer then press Ctrl+Alt+Shift+E. This command is called “Stamp Visible”. It is similar to merging all the layers down but instead, it will copy the merged image into your new layer. Duplicate this new layer by pressing Ctrl+J. Select the top one then go to Filter > Artistic > Poster Edges. Apply the settings shown below.

Select the second layer that you just duplicated from then go to Filter > Artistic > Dark Strokes and apply the settings shown below.

Step 24

Fill the text balloon with white using the Paint Bucket tool (G) to give it a white background. Reduce the opacity or fill to 51%. I also added some text to the oxygen box.
