Photoshop adds text to your photos to enhance your artistic effects

Add a romantic text to the photo, not only to give the photo to point to the role of the theme, but also to give a lot of photos, I use three ways to use Photoshop for the photo to the art text.

Simple and uncomplicated romantic words

For some pictures that are rich and have a strong plot, we do not need to modify the added text too much. Elegant, light style is most suitable for this kind of photos.

1. Open the material picture, and the screen for similar to the previous period tutorial effect processing.

2. Set the foreground color to "#996633", select the Type tool, enter "My heart Forever" four words, and add the layer style "projection" and "stroke effect" to the text.

Tips: From the photos, the upper right corner of the color is somewhat shallow, appears very empty. Based on the above, we add the text to the upper right corner.

3. The foreground color is set to white, enter "My heart Forever" in the English letter "My Heart'll go on", increase "M" This font size, and add a projection effect style. Enter a beautiful, romantic verse again, and add a projection effect to the text.

This method is to directly add text to the photo, fill the picture in the upper right corner of the empty position, and according to the image of the meaning of the world, with the line of photos to the meaning of the poem, played the role of the finishing touch.

Enhance the aesthetic effect with brushes

For some of the perfect composition, but the lack of the theme of the photos, simply add text effects may not be strong enough to express the romantic effect. At this point, we can create some romantic elements by using the brush tool. For example: Use a beautiful, dreamy butterfly brush, Angel wing shape brush and some non-mainstream style of cute brush.

1. Open the material picture, and the screen for similar to the previous period tutorial effect processing.

2. Choose "Founder Children simplified" font, use the Type tool to enter "romantic de memory" five words, add layer style to text "Outer Glow (expansion: 12%, size: 70 pixels)".

3. Download the butterfly brush and copy it to the "' on disk ': Adobephotoshop cs3presetsbrushes" directory. Create a new blank layer, select the Brush tool, and load the butterfly brush, select several sideways butterfly brushes, and draw a picture of the butterflies flying around the text.

4. Create a new blank layer again, click the Path panel, create a new path layer and use the pen tool to draw the "S" curve, and stroke (hold down the ALT key on the keyboard and click the Stroke path button to tick "simulate pressure".)

Let the words also grow a romantic "vine"

For the first two types of photos, you are eager to express a more intense romantic atmosphere. At this time we can use the path tool, so that the original slightly rigid text, outline the beautiful lines, such as: making curly, leaf-shaped edge and so on, let it grow a romantic "vine."

1. Open the material picture, and the screen for similar to the previous period tutorial effect processing.

2. Judging from the whole picture, it looks too full. If you are arranging text in a photo, it will make the picture seem crowded. We can widen the right side of the picture and make the path text on the right arm of the character. After the picture has been repaired, duplicate one layer, the background color is set to white, and the cutting tool is used to drag out the white frame edge. Add a drop shadow and stroke effect to layer 1.

3. Create a new blank layer and set the foreground color to the romantic colors you think (for example: Pink), select the Brush tool, find the maple leaf brush, make the appropriate settings in the brush preset, then draw the pattern in the new layer, reduce the opacity of the layer, add the layer mask, and use a black brush to paint the unwanted maple leaf (Figure 7).

4. Create another file, select "Compact Bold", enter "Angel Sonata" four words, each layer a word, and the text raster processing, a new blank layer above the word, select the Toolbox "Custom shape Tool" in the property bar to select the path, in the shape of the "bass clef", In the new blank layer to draw the path, press the shortcut key "Ctrl+enter" to convert the path to a selection, fill the same color as the text. Press the shortcut key "Ctrl+d" to cancel the selection and wipe the two dots with the eraser tool.

5. Perform "edit → transform → vertical flip" on layer 1 and place it on the left side of the "Day" word.

6. In the same way, to deal with "make", "Love", "song" Three words, wipe the "love" above with the eraser tool, create a blank layer above the word "Love", select "Custom Shape Tool" In the toolbox, select the path in the property bar, select "Grass 3" in the shape, and then draw the path and convert to a selection, Fill in the same color as the text, with the eraser tool wipe away the unwanted three pieces of grass, stay in the middle one, with the mobile tool put it in the "love" above the word.

7. In addition to the background of all the layers, the "Angel Sonata" text dragged into the photo file, add a layer style, and check the gradient overlay, click the gradient Option Drop-down menu, select the Rainbow Style, and select "Radial" in the style options.
