Today I will guide you through this tutorial for creating this cool text effect and smooth background using Photoshop . We will be using some vectors some layer styles and quite a bit of motion blur. To download the vector for this tutorial and the final psd. just scroll down to the bottom of this page.
For this tutorial I used Photoshop CS3, the Plastic Pill font from DaFont and a vector floral from Vector pack 47.
Step 1
Start with a plain white background. Write down your text using any font you like ( just make sure it’s pretty thick). Use a bright color ( blue for me # 0083fe ).
Step 2
Now duplicate this layer . Give it a black color and set it behind the original text layer. Name it Shadow and nudge it a few times to the right and a few times downwards.It should look like this.
Step 3
Duplicate the Shadow layer too (you can name this layer blur). Again make sure it’s behind the two text layers. And go to Filter/Blur/Motion Blur and use the following settings.
Step 4
Nudge this layer too, but this time only down and lower the opacity to about 40%.In the end you should have something looking like this.
Step 5
And now we are going to put the floral vector to good use. Import it your layout and duplicate it a few times so that every letter of the word is covered.
Step 6
Merge all these vectors layers into one single layer named Floral. And now we are going to get rid of all the vectors that are not in the text area. So Ctrl+ click on the text layer icon to select the text. Press Shift+ Ctrl+ I to inverse the selection and after selecting the Floral layer hit the delete key.
Step 7
And now let’s give some layer styles to the text. So select the text layer ,open up the layer styles menu and perform the following settings.
