In this tutorial, I will demonstrate the processes I used to design this snowy rock text effect in Photoshop. The inspiration of this design came from a snowy mountain photo I saw the other day, and I thought I could create a similar text effect which might look interesting!

Along the way, we will use various layer blending options, some selection techniques, a number of filter effects and brush dynamics. It’s a simple tutorial suitable for Photoshop beginners. Have a try :)

Here is a preview of my final image for this tutorial: (click to enlarge)

Here is alternative version which I added a bit of cloud and colour onto it:

Ok let’s get started!

Step 1

Create a new document sized 800 x 800 px, fill the background layer with Black Colour.

Let’s create some lighting effect for the background to work with. Use the Gradient Tool (G) tool and select the Radial Gradient options, Fill the background layer as shown below:

Step 2

Download a copy of this font from dafont.com and type some texts onto the background layer. Resize (if necessary) and position it in the centre of the canvas:

2 text position 500x467 Design a Snowy Rock Text Effect in Photoshop

On the text layer, apply the following layer blending options:

Drop Shadow

Inner Shadow

Outer Glow

Inner Glow

Bevel and Emboss

Gradient Overlay

Here is the effect so far:

2 effect1 500x311 Design a Snowy Rock Text Effect in Photoshop

Step 3

Donwload a copy of this rock image from cgtextures.com and load it into Photoshop. Then go back to our document and load the selection of the our text layer (holding down your Ctrl key and left-click on the thumbnail of the text layer in the layer palette):

3 select text 500x267 Design a Snowy Rock Text Effect in Photoshop

Then drag the selection onto the rock image we just loaded:

3 texture select 499x229 Design a Snowy Rock Text Effect in Photoshop

Copy and paste the selection back to our text document and name the newly created layer “rock texture”. You will see the following effect:

3 effect 500x282 Design a Snowy Rock Text Effect in Photoshop

Step 4

Duplicate the “rock texture” layer once. Hide the duplicated layer for now.

Go back to the original rock texture layer, apply the following Black and White adjustment options:

4 bw Design a Snowy Rock Text Effect in Photoshop

Change the blending option of this layer to “Screen”.

Unhide the “rock texture copy” layer, change its blending option to “overlay”. The effect now should look like this:

4 effect 500x303 Design a Snowy Rock Text Effect in Photoshop

Step 5

Pfrom the previous step, we can see the white part of the text looks like snow, but it is not realistic enough in my opinion and we can add some more texture to make it look better!

To do this, download a copy of this snow image from cgtextures.com and load it into Photoshop. Then Go back to our text document and use the same method described in Step 3 to load the text selection. This time we go one step further with the text selection: select the Rectangular Marquee Tool (M), hold down the Alt key and at the same time draw a rectangular selection for the lower part of the text. (We would like to preserve this part of the rock texture and leave the upper part for the snowy effect)

The selection will now look like this:

5 select 500x247 Design a Snowy Rock Text Effect in Photoshop

Hit Alt + Ctrl + D and assign a 10px feather to the selection. Drag this selection onto the snow image we just loaded, copy and paste some snow back to our text document:

5 copy paste 500x275 Design a Snowy Rock Text Effect in Photoshop

If you feel there isn’t enough snow on the text, you can use the Clone Stamp Tool (S) with a small soft brush to clone some more: (Tip: load the selection of the text again, and clone inside the selection so the snow won’t go beyond the text border)

5 clone 500x222 Design a Snowy Rock Text Effect in Photoshop

Name this layer as “snow texture” and apply the following Curves adjustment settings:

5 curve1 Design a Snowy Rock Text Effect in Photoshop

The effect so far will look like this:

5 effect1 500x270 Design a Snowy Rock Text Effect in Photoshop

Step 6

To add a bit more dynamic to the text effect, we can simply create a new layer called “falling snow”, grab a 3px soft round brush with the following brush dynamics:

6 shape dyn Design a Snowy Rock Text Effect in Photoshop

6 scattering Design a Snowy Rock Text Effect in Photoshop

Also Tick the “Smoothing” option.

On the “falling snow”, use this brush to paint around the text layer as shown below:

6 after brush 2 500x257 Design a Snowy Rock Text Effect in Photoshop

To add a bit of softness to the falling snow, we can duplicate the “falling snow” layer once and apply the following Gaussian Blur settings:

6 gau blur1 Design a Snowy Rock Text Effect in Photoshop

The effect will now look like this:

6 effect1 500x243 Design a Snowy Rock Text Effect in Photoshop

Ok that’s pretty much it for this tutorial. I added some more rocky texture down the bottom, also did minor adjustment for hue and saturation and alter the angle of the text.

Here is my final image for this tutorial: (click to enlarge)

Here is alternative version which I added a bit of cloud and colour onto it:

You can of course further enhance this text effect by applying some more filter effects, or combining it with some background texture, that’s totally up to you :)

Hope you enjoy this tutorial, drop me a comment if you have any question, I will try my best to help you out.

Cheers and have a nice day!

http://www.myspace.com/jo_slim Jo Slim

WTF… step 3 isn’t making any since right now. I went to FILE – PLACE then I selected the image of the rock. From there nothing makes since. I’m new to photoshop … you need to break it down more because the whole CTRL click thing isn’t making any sense at all. =[
Jason

Can you better explain how to do step 3?
admin

hi Jason, with Step 3, you basically load the selection of the text layer by Ctrl + left-click the thumbnail image on the layer palette, then drag that selection on the rock image, copy and paste a portion of the rock image back to our text document.

Hope this helps :)

Damn it looks like i can stand with the people that are stuck at part 3
I read the damn thing more than 10 times and tried for 2 hours and still it takes the whole text to the rock image not the selection

I followed your step fully Ctrl+ left click and then drag it but it drags the whole text thing not only the selection.

Please break it down further show us what we really need to do because now more people can;t enjoy this coo effect
I even started to hate it and that is not what i want

Please email me for a better explenation :

looks pretty nice!
To add some ice-shine you can paint some thin white points onto an extra layer and let wind effect blow over it in 4 directions…
(To get that working, you should rotate the layer after “blowing” in 90 degrees..
greetz…
STEP 3

okay to do step 3, you need to ctrl+click on text layer tab, okay now its selected.Now you must right click on selection and click background, then you will be able to transfer to rocks.You know the rest ;)
Stewart

For the people who are stuck on step 3. Load the rock image, draw a rectangular marque tool then delete it, go back to your text layer and drag it to the rock image, then go to edit-copy, now go back to text layer, edit-paste. I think you have to have the rectangular marque tool selected and hit cntrl drag, but ye that’s what I did and it worked. Now i am stuck in step 5, please help me!!!
admin

OK with step 5, if you’ve managed to load the selection of text, you can simply hold down the Alt key and use the rectangular marquee tool to make another selection for the bottom part, and you will see by the doing so it will substract the text selection, and just leave the selection on the top visible.

Hope this helps :)
admin

Thank you guys for helping me out explaining! Greatly appreciated!!!

Thank you for your help!
STEP 3

and by the way, i like every yours art, its very simple and you explaing good, realy you do, keep it up, and I also recomend everyone to try make Advanced glow text effect, its very easy and its very cool when finished ;)
Zupra2k

Why havnt you included a tutorial for making the final result?
Would have been nice.
Is there anyone who can explain how to get to one of the final results?
ive been trying all day, but i cant figure out how to get that result.
PS: I’m using CS4
admin

Hi Zupra2k, this is where you have to use your own imagination :)
Help

I dont understand how to get the step 3 to work… :P
have been trying for hours now, this is one of my first attempts to make something in photshop so i dont understand how to get my text into the image, when i do it only comes some white text? :P

“okay to do step 3, you need to ctrl+click on text layer tab, okay now its selected.Now you must right click on selection and click background, then you will be able to transfer to rocks.You know the rest ;)”

no i dont know the rest :(
Help

Could you add some photos of where to click on step 3? :) would be SUPER great! <3

Nice job there, keep up the good tuts. :3
Flaidey

Hey, im new to this, how to get up the menu at step 4?:)
Flaidey

No need, found out im using CS2, this tab is not in that version:P
admin

Hi sorry about the late reply.
yeah i will add some more description and a screenshot later on for Step 3, hopefully that will help :)
admin

@Flaidey: you could try channel mixer with monochorome option enabled instead, see if the result can be closer
corona

I didnt get the snowy part as good as you did, but I used the Dodge Tool to fix it up a little. Worked fine :)

Thanks for an great tutorial! It was very easy to understand, and I didnt have any problems understanding what to do.
But I can agree with the others that it may be difficult for people with less experience in each tools and options.

But anyway, great work!
Shino

Hey, I like the final pic, i think the best are that color effects so why didnt you write steps about them?
admin

@Shino: I tend to leave the final bits of the tutorial out, because I would like you to use your own imagination and not limited to the tutorial itself :)
http://www.uprinting.com/Business-Cards.html Business Card Printing

That’s what’s great with your tuts, ’cause there’s still room for us to work on the effects with our imagination. Great job as always! Just a suggestion, maybe on your future tutorials you could include the approximate time it takes to finish the tutorial :) Thanks!
ExileWarrior

I cant get passed step 3 and the Rock image site is down… :(
ExileWarrior

YAY, Im up to Step 4 now i fixxed it all >:D
But how do i get into the ”Go back to the original rock texture layer, apply the following Black and White adjustment options:”?
admin

@ExileWarrior: You might be using the earlier version than cs3, which don’t have black and white tool. You can try using channel mixer instead (with monochrome option enabled)
ExileWarrior

I have CS4 Extended tyvm :D
Elizabeth

Hi, sorry to bother you again but I’m stuck on step 4 again, the part where you want me to change the layer’s blending option to “overlay”… I’m still stuck with Photoshop 7.0, is there any option I can use in place of your CS4′s “overlay” to create the same effect?

Thank you so much for your help! :)
Elizabeth

Hey, sorry, one other question…

On this tutorial, you have those two awesome effects at the end, one with a hint of the rock background at the bottom, and the second with that awesome rainbow spectrum. I can totally understand and respect why you haven’t added how to do that in this tutorial, because people do need to add their own flare of creativity into the project, but I do have to ask…

Would there be any way that you could make a separate tutorial on how to make that kind of effect, that way we could know how to create that kind of a look on other art or designs? It’s very beautiful and it really catches the eye!
admin

Hi Elizabeth: thanks very much for your time writing such a long comment! Yes I’m considering to write a seperate tutorial on how to do those effects (colour, lighting) and will post it very soon.

However i would love everyone to use their own creativity to achieve something different, not just simply follow the tutorial. After all, being creative and differentiate yourself is what creativity about :)
MARTIN1

And i wanna ask one simple question how to ”DRAG” the selcted text to the rocks..they are in other document(when you go file new … something like this a new project).HOW????????
MARTIN1

sorry but i demand for EXPLAINING AND SHOWING 3 step and 5 as i see..it is just impossible to people who are not that good at photoshop ! I just dont get it..even after 4 hours of try and i actualy do it with the next layer and i want to remove that shitty mountain peace from my original text layer and when i try move/delete it ..it moves/deletes the rock peace for my text…..
RTM

OK..im pissed off …tell me how to ”DRAG TE SELCTION TO THE ROCK IMAGE” hwn the rock image is in different DOCUMENT?!!?!?!/!/1/1/1/1/ :O :X WTf? ?e?$?r?eRte?et?e
admin

@Martin: sorry about the late reply mate. with step 3, you firstly load the selection of the text layer, then select the rectangular marquee tool – while the marquee tool is selected, move the mouse curve over the loaded selection, you will see the curosr shape change. Then hold down the left mouse button, drag the selection over to the rock image.

That will pretty much explain step 5 as well, hope this helps!

Thatnk you so much of your lesson. I really interestting with photoshop. But I hav e the Questoin to you if you mind. Which version that you used to design photoshop, Is it Photoshop CS3 or what?
thatn you again!

Don’t forget I am from Oman.
^_^
MARTIN1

oh don’t worry for the late reply..I was just kinda very angry because the effect is so incredible and I was 100 % I will stun my school mates and…but In fact I’ve actualy managed to do step 3 so I will try to explain other peoples…
First(THE MOST IMPORTANT THING)-You have to make your documents appearing in way you can switch them easily(or said with two words…every document as new window..so you will have window with rock image and window with the nice text).So here second is easy you Select the selection of the text(Ctrl+Left Click of the mouse).And go the strange moving contour and get hanging arround with your mouse cursor until it changes to a basic cursor with a kinda rectangle on it.And then you just drag it like a basic icon of game to the recycle bin but not to the recycle bin(:D) but to the rock image which(if you done 1st step) will be little backerfrom the text.Then its simple..the selection of the text will appear on the rock image only as contour…right after you dragged it press Ctrl+C to copy it and fast press Ctrl+V but this time with our text document selected. Otherwise I just cannot drag the selection to the rock image since its other document.This way it allows to drag and put it normally
NOTICE THAT in layer and coument is different…the documents usually appears below the File,Image,Layer,Filter,Select option menus….and therefore for me is immpossible.Anyway thanx for the much tries to explain to me..and others

PS: GUESS WHAT IM STUCKED NOW ON 5TH STEP AHAHA
MARTIN1

Now im reading it …its pretty not good typed but i tihnk you understand
NOTE:Just to add in order to make your documents in windows type…try to drag your document(with text) on theplace photoshop usually work(middle)…..and for the part with the recycle bin…:D read it very slowly and try to understand my grammar wrongs(adn this ”BUT” storm
MARTIN1

damn….you can see the lots of mistakes in my text…so if you want your documents windows mode just try to drag every document bar below the settings(layer,filter…) to the middle…so this is it.And please try to understand that part with the recycle bin and the ”BUTS”
NOTICE THAT THIS MOVING OF WINDOW MODE OF DOCUMENTS AINT INVOLVED WITH THIS TEXT EFFECT.ITS JUST A WAY FOR ME TO DO STEP 3

btw can you explain step 5…or I should gie 40 more hours to figure it out?

wow very fantastic text effect, the 2nd result is much better because it has color.

Ok man i believe that you think that we should have our creativity but what if we don’t even know how you put the rock undeneath that and how you made the colors after final picture thats what the tutorial is for. plz reply i am new to photoshop so i want to know how you did those effects after i know them i can use my creativity!! thx man
James

@Dhaval: Just to answer your question to the colour on the snowy text effect – all you have to do is to add a new layer, change the blending mode of that new layer to “overlay”, then grab a big soft round brush, with the colour of your choice, and simply paint over the area you desire.

If you read some of my other tutorial, you would have discover this method :)

Remember it’s important to discover, and try out things, do not just rely on tutorials.

Hi, apparently the snow texture is gone (again?). I get a 404 error when I use the link. Do I have to find another texture for it or are you able to provide a new link?

The guide looks great otherwise. Had some problems on step 3 but saw your solution in the comments. Thanks!

Are you missing a step? Right around step 5 on the part where you feather the selection and copy the snow texture over. How do you get the icy glow effect on the top of the text? I’ve followed your exact steps four times over and my image doesn’t look anything like yours every time, yet up until that my text looks good in comparison.
My bet I’m not feathering right or something. Would you care to go more in-depth with that part? I’m new to Photoshop, I’ve got CS4.
