Today we will be cutting out our text and importing it into a layer in your artwork that you made previously
These are the steps we will be taking:
- Open your text image.
- Clear the BG layer so that you can see the checkerboard background.
- Go into your text layer and merge with your outline.
- Use the knife to cut loosely around it
- Make sure it copies.
- Undo your merge so you can save and protect your artwork.
- Find your colour and perspective artwork.
- Make a new layer.
- Paste from the ··· menu.
- Create your text as you want making sure there is BALANCE in your image.
- Add custom ‘Chocolate’ Text.
- Make new ones and compare them.
