I just bought Heather Roselli's Build-a-Cupcake and the bottom of the cupcake (ya know, the paper part) is grouped together. I'm in PSE 6 and can't, for the life of me, figure out how to ungroup it or work with it or whatever. I feel like this is something I should know, or something that is right in front of my eyes, I just can't find it. Help, please??? :) Thanks!
 
Can you right click on the group and ungroup that way? I've never used PSE so I don't know if that works or not.
 
I haven't seen it. Are they grouped one in front of the other or are they separate but on the same page?
If it's the latter, you take your lasso tool and draw around the one you want and drag it onto your layout page.

No, that's what I thought, but I can't find anything that says "ungroup". I can simplify, but that doesn't seem to do right either. Hmm......

No... in the layers pallette, it's a folder, where the layers of the bottom are grouped together.

The blend mode is "pass through". I don't know if that makes any difference.
 
The only thing I've figured out to do is to simplify the grouped layers. Then add the paper I want to attach below it, mask/cut it to the size of the formerly grouped layers, then put the blend mode of the formerly grouped layer on overlay and adjust the opacity fairly low. I think it pretty much ends up with the correct result. I can't just can't help but think there's an easier way...

Any other suggestions???
