I prepared a background for you to work on to save some time. Go ahead and take it over to your photoshop.

Drop the opacity of our current outline down to eight percent

Its barely visible now and that's good, don't worry you did nothing wrong. Duplicate the same outline except now clear it of all layer styles and take out your Eraser Tool.
