Each piece of the torn photo will be made up of several layers. To keep each piece organized, the best idea is to keep it in a group folder. Hit Ctrl + Gto put the active layer into a group folder. Make sure to give the group layer appropriate name too, as simple as 1for first piece, 2for second piece, and so on.

Rename it.

Step 30

We are going to use the same layer style for all pieces of torn photo. We can simply copy the layer style and paste it onto the designated layer. Right click the layer in Layers Paneland select Copy Layer Style.

Step 36

A dialog box will pop up asking us to choose a file. Select the file guide we made earlier. Place it on top of the torn photo. Its size should matched the size of the torn photo.

Select the guide file as smart object.

Step 37

Duplicate the 6R Photo layer into each group layer by Alt+ dragging it.

Duplicate the smart object to the first piece.

Step 38

As usual, give the duplicated layer a decent and recognizable name, something like photo - 1. That should allow us to know which is which. This duplicated layer should be placed right above the shape of the photo piece.

Rename the layer.

Step 39

Turn the photo into Clipping Maskby hitting Ctrl + Alt + G. This way, the guide file will be clipped by the shape of the photo piece underneath it.
