Step 5:

Copy the bottom text layer (the first perspective layer) and move the copied layer UNDER the first perspective layer. Then go to Filter > Blur > Gaussian blur, and set the radius to 5.0 pixels, click OK. Change the blend mode of this layer to dissolve.

Step 6:

It looks kinda gray doesn't it, let's change that up . Select your top layer (so the new layer gets on top of everything) then add a new adjustment layer by clicking this icon in the layers pallette:



and choose "Color balance" from the pop-out menu, use the following settings.

Shadows: +6, -28, -41
Midtones: -80, -30, +100
Highlights: +100, -4, -99
