Using layer mask to show image in a text

In this tutorial we'll use layer masking technique to show an image inside a text.

Start by typing "monsoon" in a new layer.

Open an image containing rainy scene. Drag this rain shot to the file containing monsoon text.
Select the rain layer and Ctrl + Click the text layer.

From layer menu select add layer mask>>reveal selection.

 
This will place the rain image inside the text.
Set foreground and background color to two different shades of blue.

Select background layer and apply filter>>render>>clouds.

Double click text layer to open layer style window and apply stroke with settings as shown.

 
Add subline text of the logo in a new layer.
Open another image of an umbrella.
Take cutout of the umbrella using lasso tool. Copy the selection and paste on logo file.
Transform to scale down the umbrella and place it nicely on the logo.

The logo is almost ready but still something is missing i.e. rain.

Set foreground and background color to a dark and light shade of blue.
Select background layer and apply filter>>sketch>>graphic pen.
This will create rain showers over our clouds background.
The monsoon logo is ready to raindance.
