a litte to compliment the FrameDesign layer

I used 0, 0, 40.00, 10.26, Black


Now, click on the Frame Design Layer

And using Xenofex 2 Constellation

Look for the It's Full of Stars preset

then change the Overall Star Density to 1

OK to apply

add a v.subtle dropshadow to this layer

Something like 0, 0, 35.00, 3.00

Delete the White Background

and save as a transparent .PNG

All done :)
