A simple, clean content box

Step 1:
Let's start out by creating a new file. I used a 400x200 pixels canvas set at 72dpi, and I filled my background with a white color. Now create a new layer set and name it 'Content Box'.
Select the Rounded Rectangle Tool and above your screen under the options palette choose Fill Pixels, set the radius to 14 px and check anti-aliased. Create a new layer and draw a rounded rectangle with 260×181 px dimensions and #7093A4 color shade.

Step 2:
Under Layer Style(Layer > Layer Style) add an Inner Shadow and Stroke blending options to your blue rounded rectangle layer.



Step 3:
Now draw a rounded rectangle with 260×26 px dimensions and #7093A4 color shade.

Step 4:
Under Layer Style(Layer > Layer Style) add a Gradient Overlay blending option to your smaller rounded rectangle layer.


Step 5:
Now choose the Horizontal Type Tool and set the font family to Arial, bold, 14 pt, none and #AEE5FF color shade. In a new text layer type the name of of your content box.

Step 6:
Add your content using font Arial, regular, 12 pt and white for color.

Results:
Clean Content Box.

Checklist |
|
Remember, if designing for print, set your workspace to 300dpi and at actual size to be used, or larger. Many people use higher resolutions, 600dpi for instance, but this is not necessary, and will not improve the final print quality.
If designing just for the web, then a 72dpi workspace is fine.
Another thing to consider - if designing for print, then make sure 'Mode' is set for CMYK.
Insert > Mode > CMYK
Only use RGB mode if designing for the web. |
