This is fairly simple.


Here's one way to do this.


First create a black BG layer.


Then on a new layer create your text.

Duplicate your text layer.


Change the color of the lower layer to the color you would like to use, pink in this case.

Add a layer mask to both text layers


Select/highlight the uppermost text layer.


Use the Pen Tool set to path to create the selection.

I like the Pen Tool for this process because you can adjust/move the points if needed.

Here is the path.....

Repeat the process for the second (pink) text layer.

Will now look like this, but don't worry!

Hit Cmd/Cntrl + D to deselect.


Then click on the the pink text layer mask and hit Cmd/Cntrl + I to invert the mask.

Now select the top text layer.

Select your Move Tool.

Use the directional arrows to move the text 4 clicks to the left.

Move the pink layer text 4 clicks to the right.

For the shadow, just add a layer style to the top (white) text layer.

Click the drop shadow and adjust to your liking.
