Photoshop makes a lovely candy text tutorial

Final effect Diagram

1. Create a new document in Photoshop with a size of 600x300 pixels, a resolution of 72 pixels per inch, and a white background. Select the appropriate font and use black to write text on the background. Think of the candy cane look, you are not difficult to choose the font used: Corner sleek, coarse font, there is no very complicated shape. Here, I use the font is VAG rounded BT, size between 280 to 320pt. I put each letter in a separate layer to make it easier to adjust the deformation. If necessary, the text layer grid, distorted and perspective deformation processing. When you are satisfied, flatten the text layer and the background layer. (Figure 01)

2. Go to the channel panel, because now our image has no color information, so the red, green, blue channel should be exactly the same. Copy a channel at will, rename the copy channel to orig, and reverse-phase the channel. (Figure 02)

3. Return the RGB channel, reset the color board, fill the background layer with white. Create a new layer on the background, named Candy Cane, filled with white. Sets the foreground color to RGB (204,0,0), select Image > Rotate canvas, rotate document Clockwise 90 degrees, select sketch filter > Halftone pattern, size set to 9, contrast is maximum, pattern type selects straight line, then rotate Canvas command, rotate document counterclockwise 90 degrees, return to normal. Select the shear command in the warp filter, and in the Shear dialog box, set the line to the shape shown in Figure 03a to retrace the undefined area. (Figure 03b)
