you can do it one of two ways. well there's actually a million ways but this is how I usually do it.

1. Put the one layer on top of the other, and change it's opacity percentage. To do this, adjust your layers how you want, open the 'layers' window, and in the top right there should be a percentage indicator next to the word 'opacity'. click it, and move the slider until you get the level of transparency you want.

2. Other way to do it if you're looking for a custom blend is to select the eraser tool, and then set what percentage of the layer you want to erase, or rather how hard you want to press the eraser. There should be an indicator near the top menu in the main window that says 'opacity'. Click this and change the amount, and then custom draw your transparency.

Play around with this, you'll see what I mean. Good luck!
