Make A text effect


Hi,
Can anyone help me? Thanks :D

Sure.

Step 1
Create a background layer. Fill with any color you like.
Create a new layer.
Add in your text.

Step 3
Create a new layer below the text layer.
Cmd/Cntrl + Mouse click on the text layers thumbnail to make a selection.
Go to SELECT > MODIFY > EXPAND enter a value. I used 16.
Your selection should now look like this.

a selection like in the image below......
