Easy blending
Open photoshop, And select the layout you wish to blend.
Click Layer > Add Layer Mask > Reveal all then select the Gradient Tools on the tools list, And start messing around with it, you can see the effects you get!
TIP: try messing with the opacity of other layers and adding layer mask to other layers to blend layers in!
TIP: To fade more than one part, use the marquee tool to select the parts you wish to fade!
