Create now the book's shadow. It's necessary for this to copy the book's layer (ctrl+j), make the copy look black with Image – Adjustments – Brightness/Contrast (this the inverse operation of making the flower look white). Move the shadow's layer under the basic book's layer and blur it out with next selection: Filter – Blur – Gaussian Blur.
Distort a little the shadow (Edit – Transform – Distort). Change now the layer's type on Soft Light and minimize the Opacity till 69%.
On a new layer above the book must be painted the lateral parts of the book situated in the shadow. Apply the Gradient tool for this.
Change the layer's type on Overlay.
Make one more copy of the flower's layer.
Move the copy lower than the basic layer and blur it out (Gaussian Blur).
Insert on the top layer now a kind of picture like the next one:
Increase its brightness (ctrl+m).
Change the colors (selective Color) and change also the layer's type on Overlay.
