Jessica, The fonts used here are Bernhard Modern and Bickham Script. If you download the .PSD file at the end of the lesson and click on the Text layers your Characters Palette will tell you what the fonts are and if you have them or not. If you don't, check DaFont.com, they'll usually have them available for free download.

Epiphany! Yes, that solved it. Thank you very much. I am very happy with the results (that are linked to in this comment). I have many more workflow issues to tackle, but gaping hole in my understanding now has a tiny little rope bridge across it. . Thanks!

Dedra,
When you use a clipping mask, the properties of the bottom layer are inherited by the top layer, so you might want to check the opacity of the layer you’re clipping to (or if you’ve applied any style to the lower layer, those styles are also passed up to the clipped layer.)

Hope that helps!

Hero,
Thanks for the great tutorial. I have one question. I know it’s something I did, but I can’t seem to diagnose it… When choose Create Clipping Mask on one (and only one of the pics, there’s the rub) the pic indeed clips, but it also goes darker. I looked at the Layer Style and everything appears to be default. Any suggestions? Thanks again for the awesome tutorial.
