This Photoshop tutorial will show you how to create a text effect with barbed wire.
Step 1.
First, create a new Photoshop document with a black background. Using the rounded rectangle tool, create a dark grey (474848) rectangle for the header and one for the content area (image a) , with a radius of 10. Now create another even darker grey (3F3F3F) rectangle for the content area, using the rectangualr marquee tool.

Step 2.
Create an orange (FF905D) rounded rectangle over the grey header, using 5 for the radius. Next, use the line tool to create a diagonal line with a slightly darker orange (F88957) than the rounded rectangle.

Step 3.
Duplicate the line, nudge it 4 pixels right, using the arrow key and then merge the lines together. Create more lines, spacing them by 4 pixels until you have covered the orange rounded rectangle. Make sure all the lines are all merged together. Create a selection using the rectangle, and use it to cut (layer via cut) the lines.

Step 4.
Delete the line layer in the area outside of the rounded rectangle. Then go to [ Part 2 ] of this Photoshop tutorial.
