Hi, Sam. I tried your method and while trying your method; I stumbled upon a way to do what I wanted to be done and it was very simple. All I had to do was cut a section/square/or whatever I wanted and paste an image under that layer. This would create exactly what I wanted which is this:

[ATTACH]65645[/ATTACH]

Then I could move the cat however I wanted and resize it/etc. It would stay sticked to the original image as if it was a hole and an image was shown through that hole and if I wanted it to be bigger, I just cut it bigger. I guess that would get me an artificial canvas within a layer? Which was what I wanted to try to do. I could group it etc.

When I tried your clipping mask method, I got this:

[ATTACH]65646[/ATTACH]

which was half what I wanted because if I moved the bottom picture (the cat) then the original image moves with it (when I wanted it to stay). I basically wanted a layer to act like a canvas so that I could stick images/etc/resize it/things into it. Was this applied correctly?

Thanks guys!

Also @ MrToM thanks for the video. Really nice and I appreciate it very much.

I may have to explore a bit more; it seems a bit complex (but for now I seem to have some sort of a solution).
