Here’s what I’m doing: I’m loading the template, then I’m opening the photo that I want to use in the mask.  With the template open on the editing screen, I drag the photo from the bin to the main screen, which creates a frame layer.  I drag the layer to just above the clipping mask layer, but when I try to press alt and use the mouse hover to get the layer to group with the clipping mask layer, the grouping icon doesn’t show up.  It shows up fine between other layers, though.  Does this have something to do with the image layer being a frame layer?  How do I fix this? 

A dozen virtual cookies to whoever can help me out here.  🙂
