Creates an effect where text appears to be "etched" or engraved into the background.

  • Use text-shadow to create a white shadow offset 0px horizontally and 2px vertically from the origin position.
  • The background must be darker than the shadow for the effect to work.
  • The text color should be slightly faded to make it look like it's engraved/carved out of the background.
<p class="etched-text">I appear etched into the background.</p>
