Hand Lettering Tutorial for Beginners | Gold Foil Texture

My Links!

Stained By Sharpie (Fabric Markers)

Hey guys! So as I said in the video, I actually created this effect completely by accident. I had some random hand lettering which I had scanned in and thrown into photoshop to play around with between projects, just to mess around and experiment really. Then I ended up creating this effect and thought it looked quite cool, and sort of like a gold foil texture on black paper. I then posted the results to Instagram, and a few people asked me how I did it, and I honestly had no idea, so I basically undid everything and noted each step I took to achieve this look, and then created this tutorial for you guys!
I know there will be other ways to achieve this effect, maybe easier and or better ways, but the purpose of this was just to show you how I achieved it. I hope this tutorial helps some of you guys out and enables you to expand your digital capabilities when it comes to lettering!
Thanks for watching and reading, have an amazing day!
