This tutorial is going to show you how to create text that looks like this:
Step 1:: Open a new document and type your text or if you already have text saved you want to use, open it up. I will be using my site's name, Unbreakable.
Step 2:: Next, add the colors from the color scheme picked out. After adding that, select
'layer 1', right click and duplicate that layer once.
Step 3:: Select the layer that says
'layer 1' and go to
filter > noise > add noise, which should look the first picture below. Now, select the layer
'layer copy 1' and add your pattern(second picture).
Step 4:: Select
'layer 1' again, make sure you select this tool(
) before continuing. Now take your arrow key, move the image to the
right 3x and
down 3x. Your text should look like the picture below and select
'layer 1 copy', right click and merge down to merge both layers.
Step 5:: Go ahead duplicate the layer once again and this time we will be adding strokes around it. Select
'layer 1' and click
'fx' > stroke. Go to
fill type > gradient, see below first picture. Change the colors to match your scheme and the stroke size to
2px, click ok.
Step 6:: Select
'layer 1 copy', click on
'fx' > stoke. This time change the to white and the size to
2px, click ok.
Step 7:: Now, you should still have
'layer 1 copy' selected, so just right click and merge down. Here's your finished product:
