cutting splatter out of text

1. paint splatter

This works best with a thick, large font.

Right click to get this menu and select "Simplify Layer"

4. use magic wand to select text

I had to click on each letter with the magic wand.

5. delete text by pressing the "backspace" key

The marching ants around the letters should still be there.

6. select the splatter layer (IMPORTANT!)

7. copy and paste

Picture
You can do this by going to Edit on the top menu or using the shortcuts: Ctrl + C for copy and Ctrl + V for paste.

8. hide the splatter layer
