Highlight all layers and move everything so it is center.
Get a soft eraser and erase the hard edges on the smoke.
Open paper 37, move to canvas and duplicate. DO NOT resize.
Turn the eye off of one of them. Move the other one under either the right or left black circle.
Insert it into the black circle just as we did above with the previous paper on the black rectangle.
Turn the eye back on, on the second paper and add it into the other circle.

Duplicate this layer once more and move one of these layers on the top of all the other layers.
