Design a Realistic Website Layout in Photoshop ~ 440Photoshop

Open a new document with the following size: 960 x 900 pixels
Now go to Grafplus.com and download the following texture:
Place the texture on your layout

Over this great wood texture I will place a stock image with a notebook

I will create a new layer under this notebook, and with Brush Tool I will create a shadow

I will create another layer above the notebook layer, and one more time with Brush Tool I will add a shadow in the middle of my notebook

On the header of this layout I will add some images with a moleskine notebook, a cup of coffee, a pocket calculator, and a pair of glasses

Please click on the following image to see the full size layout

Over the Moleskine notebook I will write some text with Horizontal Type Tool. Then I will press on CTRL+T and I will rotate the text until it will look like in the following image

I have used the following fonts: Segoe Script on the left side and Dillenia UPC on the right side. You can use any font you like

Then I will place some check marks near the text. I have used Custom Shape Tool to place those check marks

This is my result

I will continue to add more stock images. On the bottom I will add a nice leaf, and a butterfly

And on the right side I will add a nice pencil

I will add some text on the notebook

You can place one of the texture you like most on your document, then go to Image > adjustments > desaturate. As you can see another texture will transform this layout very much

Now I will add also another stock image with an old notebook

Download this PSD layout and you will be able to play with the settings. This is my final PSD layout
