Do you know HTML and CSS? If you are provided with an image of how the page should look you need to create a template that mimics that look by using HTML and CSS to place the required elements in the correct places.
The first step would be to identify the block elements that make up the page - header with banner, where the navigation is, number of columns, etc - and place them correctly and then start adding the colors, images, text, etc.

You might want to start with something like this:

But if you google HTML layouts you'll find what you need (avoid anything that teaches you table based layout!)
