- Create a new document, (width 700 px, height 400 px) ,and unlock the background layer by double clicking it to create an editable layer.
Step 2
-Add a layer style by clicking the fx button from bottom on layers box and clicking Pattern Overlay.
Click the gear button from the right of the patterns, select Artist Surfaces , then click Append.
Click the gear button again , then click Small List, now chose the 4th pattern from the bottom of the list called Brush Pen on Canvas.
Step 3
-Click Color Overlay ,and write the following color code : 332103. It will be a dark brown.
After that, select Vivid Light as the blend mode
Step 4
-Click Levels, in the Add an adjustmen box, and change the White output to 169.
I advise after this step to right click Layer 1 and transform it to Smart Object, so the layer style does not interfere with future modifictaions.
Step 5
-Click the Filter option from the above menu, click Render then click Lightning Effect .Add the values from the picture below (also add 75 to ambience) ,and just play arround with the lightning effect shape, untill you get close to this. Place it where it looks good.
Step 6
-Add 2 more Lightning effects, place them as in the image below.
Step 7
-Chose a cool font, write your message and add the value 65 to fill. This reduces the opacity of the layer, but not the layer style.
Step 8
-Add layer style for the text layer. First select Inner Shadow, then add the values from the image below. (Blend mode - Multiply, Opacity 90%, Distance - 3, Size - 0.)
Step 9
-Add annother layer style to the text layer. Select Drop Shadow, and add the values from the image below.(blend mode - Color Dodge ,etc)
Step 10
-Add a nice effect by creating a rectangle as long as the text ,with a small height, so it looks like a line,
Step 11
-Change the Fill of the rectangle to 0, then copy the layer style from the text layer, and paste it over the rectangle.
Modify the values of the Inner Shadow and of the Drop shadow styles as shown in the images below
Step 12
-Duplicate the rectangle (line) layer ,or copy it by clicking Alt + Shift and drag it under the layer to achieve this look.
Step 13
-Add annother 2 rectangles ,smaller in width then the first one, place one above and one below.
Step 14
-Create a Group and add the text layer and the rectangles in it. Then play with the position of the group so it looks something like this.
Step 15
-Create a new layer, and with a size 400 brush, with 0 Hardness , Select a dark brown color and using Shift ,draw a shadow in the lower part of the image.
And finally, the result
