We leave a dark border around the text, which is invisible to you now, though if we take a lighter hue for the bg, you will notice that the effect looks different, a lot less interesting.
Next, type a word on your canvas. Make sure you use a very bold font. We used ‘Yikes!’ for this tutorial.
Go to Layer >> Layer Styles >> Blending Options, and apply the following settings:
