Step 21

To make it even darker add Levels (ctrl+L) and move grey arrow a bit to the right.

Step 22

Download paper texture from this page. Paste wrinkled-paper.jpg on top of our paper.

Step 23

Hit ctrl+alt+G to put the texture inside our paper. Change blend mode to Multiply and lower its opacity to 20%.

Step 24

Double click paper's layer and add Drop Shadow. No need to worry about the setting, default setting is okay.

Step 25

Take a look at what we have now! Isn't that stupid. In real life, there's no shadow like this. Surely, we need to work on it.

Step 26

From Layers panel right click layer styles list and choose Create Layer. This step will separate layer styles to its own layer and gives us full control. You might get warning dialog box, if you do just click OK.

Step 27

Activate the new shadow layer. Hit ctrl+T, right click and choose Warp. Drag the handles until you have a realistic shadow. And that's it, we're done with the paper napkin!
