6. Click on the drop-down box and you'll find the other available deformation maps. The one we want to use is Paper Edges, which you'll find at the bottom-left hand corner (see below). Click on this to select. Before you click on the Load button however, make sure the Replace Current Map and Fit to Layer options are selected and the Checkerboard size is set to Small. Now you can click on Load :)
7. Voila...your image has now been meshwarparized ;-) Now this next bit is a little tricky, but not too bad. With your magic wand tool, carefully click anywhere in between the edge of the image and the main image border (as shown below, left). If you get the Auto Actions message box pop-up, just hit OK to get rid of it, and if you need to, reclick again with the wand tool. You can eliminate these messages from popping up if you find them annoying by resetting them in your Preferences. Go to Selections>Invert. OK, now you should have just the brown part selected like I have (see below right).
8. Now to go Selections>Modify>Contract, and contract by 2 (see below, left). Leave selected. Go back to the materials palette, and right-click on the background fill box and change to this colour: HTML: #FDEFC2, or R:253, G:239, B:194, as shown (below right). Right-click to flood fill the selection, and then deselect.
