Creating Text with Flowers Pixels

Sometimes you need to create nice text colors and what you can do is just take those multiple pixels from other images. Flowers have lots of color and Photoshop can use those colors in 3 steps.

Step 1. Create a new 800 x 500 pixels, 72 pixels /inch, White background, RGB color mode.
Type a text, anything you want but just make sure to use some tick fonts like Impact or Wide Latin.

Step 2. Open any flower picture. You can find nice high quality pictures at http://www.morguefile.com/ and save it in your computer. By default is going to save in My Pictures Folder inside My Documents Folder.


Step 3. Open the flower with Photoshop
Using the Move Tool
, move the flower over the text layer, resize it to make sure all your text is covered. You will end up with 3 layers as shown



Step 4. Keeping the Flower layer selected go to Layer > Group with Previous or just press Ctrl + G


Step 5. Final result
