    Very nice. But, I cant cut out the selected text after its created to give it a contour. Is there an easier way? Or I might not be understanding the final step, I’m new with photoshop.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hey Irish, I did fail to mention in step 13 that you need to return to the rectagle shape layer before you cut. I hope this helps.
