Here goes: 

 

Open template - Shift D to duplicate and then delete CR layer.

I don't like a white background unless I really need one, so I clear the white background by highlighting the BACKGROUND layer and go to EDIT - CLEAR.

Also, I like working with a bigger work area.  Go to IMAGE - CANVAS SIZE and change the height and width both to 800.

Now onto the layers. 

Highlight layer 1.  SELECTIONS - SELECT ALL - FLOAT - DEFLOAT

Open PP012 - C/P - SELECTIONS - INVERT - DELETE - SELECTIONS - SELECT NONE

Delete layer 1.

Highlight layer 2.  SELECTIONS - SELECT ALL - FLOAT - DEFLOAT

Open PP8 - C/P - SELECTIONS - INVERT - DELETE - SELECTIONS - SELECT NONE

Delete layer 2.

Highlight layer 3. SELECTIONS - SELECT ALL - FLOAT - DEFLOAT

Open PP7 - C/P - SELECTIONS - INVERT - DELETE - SELECTIONS - SELECT NONE

Delete layer 3. 

Highlight layer 4. SELECTIONS - SELECT ALL - FLOAT - DEFLOAT

Open PP016 - C/P - SELECTIONS - INVERT - DELETE - SELECTIONS - SELECT NONE

Delete layer 4.

Highlight layer 5&6. SELECTIONS - SELECT ALL - FLOAT - DEFLOAT

Open PP016 - C/P - SELECTIONS - INVERT - DELETE - SELECTIONS - SELECT NONE
