Photoshop Tutorial!

Yeayyy another Tutorial! Well firstly i was very amazed seeing the feedback from my latest photoshop watercolor tutorial. It was great seeing u all to actually try making and following the steps, and not to forget the amazing results! So this time i'm going to show how to make :

PICTURE TEXTS

Step 1

 

 Start by opening a blank layer 

Step 2

          Then open all of the pictures  that u are going to use. This time, I will be using 2 floral pattern backgrounds.

Step 3

 

             Now, use the “ Horizontal Type  Tool” (or by simply typing “T”) to write down the words on the blank layer.  (I am in fact a “harry potter movies” fan ^^)

Step 4

Make sure that the text color is black

Step 5

        Now, I want to change the color of the background. Pay attention to the layers box on the bottom right. Make sure that the layer is on “background” (as seen on the picture above). 

Step 6

         Click on the “Paint Bucket Tool” ( or by simply typing “G”) then set the color by click on the “Set Foreground Color” (on the bottom left).  Choose the color you want then click “OK”

Step 7

        Use the “Move Tool” ( or by simply typing “V”) and drag ur picture layer to the text layer

Step 8

 It will look like this

Step 9

         Now pay close attention to the layer box, make sure that ur “picture layer “ is on top of the text words. Then click on the small arrow on top of Opacity (look at red circle).

Step 10

           Then choose “Create Clipping Mask”. Or if you think that it’s confusing u, u can make a shortcut by typing “ Alt +Ctrl + G”

Step 11

YEAY U’VE MADE IT!! (here, I changed the color of the word “NO GOOD” to white)

Step 12

        Overall, YOUR DONE. U can stop here. But I wanna do a bit more on this picture to make it look better.

 So,  I dragged my other floral pattern layer to the text layer (as seen on the pict. above). Then do over step  9-10 (or u can just type “Alt + Ctrl + G”)

Step 13

            Now this is what makes it different. For the 3^rd time, look over to the layers box on  the right. Then click the “Opacity”. Feel free to arrange the opacity level. This time, I set it to 69%

Step 14

There u go! U see the difference?

Step 15

           The last touch up! Click on the “Text Layer” (look at the red circle) at the Layers Box. Then click ur right mouse and choose “Blending Options”

Step 16

 

    Click on “Stroke” then freely change the color and size. After that, click OK.

Step 17

AND THIS IS HOW IT LOOKS NOW!

Step 18

    Lastly, I’m going to use the “Crop Tool” (or by simply typing “C”)  to crop it a bit

Step 19

FINALLY! TADAAAA. WE’RE DONE! :D

GOODLUCK! :)
