Create a custom look for your blog or business, for web use or print using a watercolor look. Customized for you. Your choice of colors, your choice of font, everything. A beautiful header or logo, etc.

The first step is to choose your font. The color isn’t particular at this point as will be hiding this layer later on. A bolder, thicker font will show the watercolor better.

Select your first color, pastels work great. There are two ways to create your watercolor. One being very careful using the Watercolor Build Up, using this brush you have to make sure to use quick strokes in places for light color. The other way, in which I used, is using the Round Watercolor brush. I completely fill in the select space, choose my next color, a slightly lighter color and make quick strokes through the selected area. You can you more than two colors, customized to your choice. Creating Watercolor Text
