Creating The Content Area

Set your foreground color to #f1eeea and background color to #ffffff then select the gradient tool. With the gradient tool select select a linear gradient then drag the gradient over your background layer starting from just above the featured area and dragging about 200 pixels downwards.

Now underneath the product screenshot add a small title saying “From The Blog”.

Product Layout

Underneath your small title add one of your buttons which we created earlier. Re size the button quite a bit then add a month of the year inside.

Product Layout

On the right side of the month box add a post title with a description underneath.

Product Layout

Repeat the steps as many times as need until you get a small blog.

Product Layout

Creating The Gallery

Create a new text heading saying “In The Gallery” then underneath add 3 screenshots of your product. I’ve just used my current screenshot for the purpose of this tutorial.

Product Layout

Finish off the gallery by adding a small paragraph underneath the screenshots.

Creating The Seperators

Select the type tool and keep the dash key (-) pressed until you get a row of dashes. Place the horizontal dashes in between the blog and the gallery.

Product Layout

Repeat the process once more only this time make the separator a lot longer. Once your happy with the separator rotate it by 90 degrees and place it along side the left content.

Product Layout

Finish off the separator by adding a layer mask. Once you’ve added the layer mask drag a linear gradient from about about 50 pixels from the top, dragging upwards to the top of the separator. The separator should blend in with the background.

More Content

Finish off the content area on the right by adding more product related content building up your layout. I’ve chosen to go for a demo section where you can see the product in action.

Creating The Footer

Select the rectangular marquee tool and make a selection around the last bit of space at the bottom of your canvas. Fill the selection with the color #b8bdc8 then add a inner shadow and stroke using the settings below.

Once you’ve added the layer styles press “Ctrl + T” to enter into free transform mode. Select the left anchor point and drag out past the canvas. Repeat the process for the right anchor.

Finally add your footer text somewhere on the footer area.
