Switch to brush tool, set brush size to 1-2 pixels, set color to white, and on bottom of path palette, click Stroke button. The white line should appear (if it is not strong enough, click Stroke button again).
Using same steps, draw as many lines as you like (remember to delete a path as soon as you clicked "stroke" button). Then, set layer blend mode to "overlay".
We're almost done! Using font of your choice, write your messages. Move and rotate so that the messages align with the lines.
Voila! :-)

The last secret is how to create a fish that sends its congratulations too. Using Shape tool (U), draw a circle. Switch to path selection tool (A).

select path, copy-paste (Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V), resize (Ctrl-T, then hold Shift to preserve proportions), then change shape mode to Substract.
copy and paste the circle again, move a bit to top, change shape mode to intersect.
click "combine" button to merge shapes into one shape, copy-paste it, flip vertically, move down to create fish body, then select all shapes, copy-paste, move to the right to create fish tail...
