Tip - On the Layer Palette you can easily create a new Raster Layer. If you click on the down arrow next to the windows, you will get this pop up menu

5.  Click on the eyedropper tool  Pick a color from the image

6.  Click on the flood fill icon  .  Looks like a paint can tipped over.  Fill layer   with color.  I have chosen Color #efddbb

Where's your Image? Do you remember how to get it back?  This is how your Layer Palette should look at this point 

7. Go to Layers - Arrange - Move Down

 

Tip - You can also drag the Raster 2 layer below the Raster 1 layer by clicking on the Raster 2 layer and dragging below Raster 1. See the hand and the black line, just hold the mouse key and drag
