How do I create this kind of effect in photoshop?

check this out: http://img87.imageshack.us/img87/8646/43308702.jpg See the way the cards inside the spade overlap it on one side but the spade covers the rest of the sides. How would I create this? :)

Not saying it's the best way and I've not given it all that much thought but if the inside circular image of the red/black spade had the top quarter cut out and used as a seperate layer, you can have the rest overlap the cards and the quarter (as a seperate layer) set to sit behind the cards assuming the Spade is transparant over a black background.

In my opinion , I think it is the best way !

have the cards on a layer above the spade shape layer then using masks hide parts of the cards until they look like they are tucked in behind the spade shape.
