: How to recreate this cut out words effect How can I "physically" cut out a word like this with a picture for the background on say a C.D cover? Does it require a special tool? I mean words

@Turnbaugh909

You define the shape which you want to have cut out as a vector shape, and tell your print shop that you want that cut out.

They send your vector path out to a die-maker (you'll need to pay for this, probably in advance) to have a die made.

They'll then use the die on the printed piece.

You can use photoshop,

In Photoshop just double click on layer > blending option > bevel and emboss.

It will depend on your creativity mind. This will also help you -
