Strawberry Text

We'll begin this tutorial, by creating a new canvas 100 x 100 pixels, then change the foreground to D01111 and fill the background. Then change the foreground again to F2EA70 and choose the "Elipse Tool." Draw a similar shape to the one that I have drawn below, which will be the seed.

Now that you have your seed, you can now right click on the seed layer and select, "Blending

Options...". Now click on "Outer Glow". use settings at left You may now click OK.

You should now have the following:



Now duplicate the seed layer until you have something similar to the following. Tip: Use the "ALT" key to duplicate. Once you are satisfied with the look, go to the main menu and select "Edit" then "Define Pattern" Give it it a name and go to step 5.

Now create a new canvas 350 x 180, then go ahead and choose the text tool. I chose "Joan" as the typeface at a size of 104. Now type your text and move on to step 6.

Now that you have your text, you can now right click on the text layer and select, "Blending Options...". Now click on "Drop Shadow".
