    I'm not really sure what you want. maybe a visual would help. Anyway.. Of course, when you enlarge your canvas you should draw in a lot more map that you hadn't before. But maybe these can help you a bit on your way:

    First: Did you already search for 'expand mask' or something similar in the photoshop help?

    Well, you would use canvas size to enlarge the picture of course. (Not image-size)

    The 'transparent 10 inch gap' you added/created now should be equal in all your layers. Then you can choose how to fill those in.

    My photoshop has a feature 'content aware fill' (edit>fill) which is easy for not too detailed colour layers (like gradients etc)

    I would also play around with: copying layer style, maybe to duplicate your masks for the larger layers.

    Maybe reading this tread will help you in some way. There is a lot about the canvas there: Adobe Community: resize canvas to selection
