Melting Snow Text

Hello! We are going to create some nice Melting Snow Text today, hope you'll like it.

Step 1:

Make a new 400x250 pixels document, in this tutorial size is not a big issue, but try to keep it big.

Step 2:

Select your Paint Bucket Tool under your Tool's bar and fill the Background with Black color...

Step 3:

Now type the text that you want to look like Melting Snow, we are using here a nice rounded font called "Foo", you can get it for free here! (The first one on the list).

Step 4:

Now go to Filter - Stylize - Wind... (Probably you WILL have to Rasterize your layer first).

Introduce the right settings on the Wind menu, just like our screen cap.

Step 5:

Now go to Image - Rotate Canvas - 90 CW...

Step 6:

Now Repeat Step 4 with the exact same settings.

And now repeat it once again BUT, change the direction on the Wind window, just like the example:

Step 7:

Now let's put the text straight again, go to Image - Rotate Canvas - 90 CCW

Now your text is looking great:

Step 8:

Right click your text layer and select the Blending Options.

We are going to use here Bevel and Emboss, Texture, Satin and Color Overlay.

Finally your Melting Snow Text is DONE and looking great!
