This is a super simple tutorial that will help you create a nice “Milky” text effect in less than a minute!

Resources:
Step 1:
Start by filling the Background with the color #4a7b8d.

Step 2:
Create the text, I’m using the font “Tiamaria Script”, the font size is (257) px, and the color is white (#ffffff).

Step 3:
Double click on the “Milk” text layer to open the Layer Style box, and insert the values as below:
- For the “Drop Shadow” effect, choose the color #336273, and change the “Spread” value to (15).

- For the “Inner Shadow”, just change the color to #898989.

- And finally, add a “Bevel and Emboss” effect, change the “Direction” type to “Down”, change the “Gloss Contour” type to “Gaussian-Invert”, the “Size” value to (9), the “Soften” value to (1), and the “Shadow Mode” color to #8e9598.

And, we’re done!
good, i will try it later.

Hi!..^^
Can you tell me How to make “Gaussian-Invert”?
Yes sure! You need to follow the simple steps shown in this image http://www.textuts.com/images/others/contours.jpg, and when you load those contours, “Gaussian-Invert” will be among them.
Thank you so much..^^
