Default Making Brush Alphas look like Chipboard Alphas?

Hi-
I have these really great brush alphas, and I am wondering if anyone knows how to make them look like chipboard alphas on a LO...less flat, more dimensional

Hmmm . . . that would be one of those "designer things" and I generally just bow to the great DD designers and buy their chipboard alphas. It would be asking a lot to have them share their secrets with us.

There are some great chipboard alphas in the store!

well, to add depth to a stamped alpha it would look more like a bumpy rub-on but you could try Layer Styles > Bevel emboss and play around with the settings until you get something you are happy with! HTH!

Thanks, I'll try your suggestion, as well as use the purchased chipboard alphas I have...it was just a thought that I had at the end of my work week.
