A new window will come up asking you to give the duplicate image a name (wall copy)

Change the layer blending mode. I used “Hard Light”. When using different colors of the background layer is different than the one I used for this tutorial, other blending modes may work as well:

Add your text with color #FFE600.

Go to Blending Options>Stroke

Size: 2px
Position: Outside
Blend Mode: Normal
Opacity: 100%
Fill Type: Color  #8B2828
