Step 1

Open an existing document in photoshop, or create a new one. I will be using a document that is 440 x 312 for this tutorial. Fill the background with white (#FFFFFF).

Step 2

Get out the Custom Shape Tool ( image 1 ) and select the Grass Shape:

Create a new layer, set your foreground color to black (#000000) and draw the shape onto the canvas:

Step 4

Now press Ctrl + J to duplicate this layer.

Go to "Edit->Transform->Flip Horizontally".

Press 'V' on your keyboard to get out the move tool, and nudge the duplicate layer over as I've done in this image:

Step 5

Next we'll add some text to it. Set your foreground color to white (#B4B4B4). Get out the text tool, and pick a nice thick font that you like. I'll be using DreamScar. My result:

At this point the same techniques are applied to create more detail. You can choose another custom shape and apply an inner shadow such as I've done here:
