Open a new image, 400 x 500, transparent background. Copy your framed marble image ("Ctrl"..."C") and paste it onto your new image as a new layer. ("Ctrl"..."L")

Rotate this layer (image...rotate) 45 degrees to the right. Sharpen once. (image...sharpen...sharpen)

*NOTE: Do NOT rotate this image until you have pasted it onto your new image. Paste as a new layer first, then rotate, then sharpen.

Now copy your framed picture ("Ctrl"..."C") and paste it onto your new image as a new layer on top of your framed marble layer. ("Ctrl"..."L")

Use the mover tool to position both layers.

You should now have an image that looks something like this: (size reduced for faster loading)
