After reading this tutorial you will be able to create your very own glitz/bling text!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
1>>> The first thing we will do is create a new document of any size, I'm using 480 x 640.



2>>> Type your text with the text tool.  Right click > Rasterize Type.  Select the text by holding down control & clicking on the layer thumbnial in the layers palette.


3>>> Go to Filter> Render> Clouds.
 
 
 
4>>> Go to Filter > Distort > Glass.  Use the settings like mine:

 
 
5>>> Now we add the gold effect.  Go to Layer > Layer Style > Layer Blending options.  Select stroke and add these settings:
 

 

Then go to Bevel & Emboss and apply these settings:
 
 
Make sure you have Stroke Emboss selected in the Layer Style section
 
 
6>>> Now to color the text outline with gold.  Go to Layer > New Adjustment Layer > Hue/Saturation.  Click Ok on the box that appears.  Then use these settings:




7>>> Add a background to your text by creating a new layer underneath the text layers.  Color it with solid color, or with a gradient like I have done.


8>>> Now we make our text effect extra glitzy and sparkly.  Create a new layer above all the others.  Select the Brush tool & select the no. 50 brush that looks like a star.  Choose a color of white.  Now just add some sparkles by clicking where you want them!
