    well, I'll try to explain, sorry for my English!
    I add the paper I desire to show on the "gap", under the cutfile. Then, I use the magic wand (I use PS), I select inside the letter - so the marching ants appear and the gap is inside. then I use a ctrl+alt+i shortcut and hit delete. the whole paper should be deleted and remain only the part inside the Letter....

    let me know if this helps, I'm not with my PS open now, I'm telling you what I remember....I hope it's easy to understand my tutorial =P

    I'm happy I could help you!!
    Black paper is a little bit difficult to add shadows, but I can see the depth, it's very good! love your page!

    It came out great! your shadowing makes it look cutout perfectly! (and i totally agree shadowing on black is quite difficult)
