2.) Press letter "D" on keyboard to set foreground color to black. Select the Text tool and type something simple. (I used Arial Black 48pt smooth.)

3.) Launch the Layer Style palette and go to Color Overlay. Color #FF00CC. (Follow all panels exactly now.)

4.) Switch to Bevel and Emboss. 1st Color #FFFFFF. 2nd Color #000000.
