Tutorials » Adobe Photoshop » Shiny Gradient Text

Shiny Gradient Text

1. Open a new file in Adobe Photoshop, any size. Click on the text tool. Your font should be as bold as possible or the effect won't show up much. I'm using Old English Text MT.

2. Make sure your layers palette is open (Window- Show Layers).

3. Double click on the layer with text. A window should pop open. Add the following: (note- the color I used was pink, but you can use any color)

Drop Shadow



Outer Glow



Gradient Overlay



Stroke



And there you have it! For even more shine, add a few sparkle brushes on a new layer like seen below.
