This cardboard text effect works best with thick fonts and personally I recommend Squada One which can be downloaded for free from Google Fonts. I wanted to create a text effect that make the words look like they are made out of paper/cardboard and feel quite bulky at the same time.

The cardboard textures used were taken from photos-public-domain.com and you can find quite a lot of free resources around that place. Also, don't forget to share and check our text effects category for similar freebies or the textures section for other cool materials.
