Want to learn how to create 3D puff text in Affinity?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this week\u2019s tutorial, I\u2019m showing you how to take ordinary text and transform it into soft, dimensional lettering that looks similar to puff heat transfer vinyl (HTV).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"3d<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019ve seen those raised, puffy lettering designs on t-shirts and sweatshirts, you know exactly the look I\u2019m talking about!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The trick is using Affinity\u2019s 3D Layer Effects to create rounded, raised lettering without making it look overly shiny or plastic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ll walk you through the process, including how to access some hidden advanced settings that you might not even realize are available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trust me, I had to do a little digging to find those settings myself!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
