Zoe, hello once again and welcome in making a logo and a quick graphic design element tutorial. In this tutorial we'll practice how to make logos - combine them with colors and little details and of course to select proper font styles for all this madness.



So create a document - the size Is not so important- just try to select the proper combination between PC (hardware), the document dimensions and the speed while you working.

So with me speed and Core 2 Duo, 2 GB ram - I often choose something like this.



So the first step will be the creation of something like background - because white is too bright.



This is how I did it this time - very quickly! I've created a fast tone with big diameter brush.

Then I've applied texture filter along with motion blur filter:



The result I've got is this:



Then it is some text work:

So the first thing I always do is I choose some king of non Classic (web) font to apply some layer styles.

Here is my font line:



I will do 2 lines with different fonts.



See my layer styles on the first one:























Here is the overall effect



The food thing that you can do this - you can change the letters and the layer style will be there too: you can also copy the layer styles and even paint and design with it.
