You should obtain this :




3. Use a Ctrl+Click on the thumbnail of the "Layer 1" to have its shape as your selection. Then go to Select > Modify > Contract, and enter 7 in the newly appeared window.

Now create a new layer (Ctrl+Shift+N), and fill your selection with black. Then deselect (Ctrl+D). You should obtain this :

6. Create a new layer and fill the same selection with white :




7. Use the elliptical marquee tool to draw a selection like on the image, and press delete. Reduce the opacity of the layer to 40%. You should obtain this :




8. Then Ctrl+Click on "Layer 2"'s thumbnail, and contract the selection by 4 pixels. Create a new layer, and fill your selection with white. Now use the elliptical marquee tool to draw a selection like on the image and press delete :




9. Deselect (Ctrl+D), and reduce the opacity of the layer to 20%. You should obtain this :
