Help---making a title look like a sticker

[LSlycord]

Good morning ladies! I need some help. I want to make a title that looks like a sticker---with the white edging around the title. I used to be able to do that---and now, I can't for the life of me figure it out. I use PS. Anyone know of an easy way to do this?

In PSE - select title, right click and select edit; then add white stroke around it.

I double click the layer to bring up the effects and then add an outside white stroke of about 15-20 px depending on the image and what look I’m going for.

Yep, I use layer styles for this too so I can adjust and add shadows, etc.

@BrightEyes, @Vicki Robinson and @VickiStegall you ladies are truly the BEST! How could I have forgotten about this? Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I am late to the party but that is how I do it too. The reverse is true when I like a sticker image but don’t want the sticker look. I highlight the white edge and delete it.

I do the above, but also add a shadow and then edit it to add a slight bevel (3-4). Usually the original shadow is reduced at that time too.

I've found the outside stroke will hide some of the drop shadow too, so I do the stroke first, simplify the image to "set" the stroke effect, then add the drop shadow after that. I've never tried adding a bevel, though!

Oh! Brilliant. I've been so annoyed about the shadow thing. Never thought of this though, TFS!

I use strokes for photos and alphas/fonts but never use the bevel so will have to try that.

Oh bevels make the greatest frames!

I used to be on her team too. I really enjoyed testing the actions.

They are really good- especially the shadowed and lifted ones!
