Clear Plastic Text
This is a quite simple tutorial to create a very nice plastic feel to your texts and shapes..

Start a new document, and use your type tool to create your text. Make it big and bold, and color #B7E1F7. Note: The settings I use in this tutorial is for my text size 350px with font Georgia. If you are using a different font, at different size, you may need to adjust some settings to get it look right. Now just apply the following layer style settings to the text.

Layer » Layer Style - >Inner Glow |

Layer » Layer Style - >Inner Shadow |
