In this tutorial we will create text "Happy Valentine's Day" from a lot of hearts.

Begin your work by creating a new file that would have 1280x800 px and 72 dpi. 

Next step we have to write the holiday congratulation text, keeping the same parameters from the table below:

 



Using the Custom Shape Tool (U), it’s possible to introduce several small hearts on the made picture, selected out of the next table and positioned above the written text.



The first heart’s layer has the color #C00B21



Select the next demonstrated parameters by making a mouse click on the layer we work with on the layers’ panel. Blending Options>Outer Glow



Blending Options>Inner Glow



Blending Options>Stroke

 

 



The next heart’s layer will contain a small highlight made with the color #D90000. The element is possible to draw applying the Ellipse Tool (U). Firstly we’ll have to make the basis for the new element and then press Alt button to cut out the unnecessary zones, selecting the same tool.



Select the same technology and the same instrument to represent a white highlight this time.
