heres something that you could do:

copy that, and bring up a new canvas with 400*100
press ctrl + b and set the red channel to 60. (in the first box from the left, type 60)
make a new layer and fill it with white, then take the polygonal lasso tool and make a box in the centre, only the top left hand corner is cut slightly, so its not a right angle.
then, go to the layer blending options for the new border layer, and set these:
drop shadow:
*use default settings*
bevel and embos
*change the size to 0*
color overlay
*change the color to blue and set opacity to 24%*
gradient overlay
*change the gradient to copper*
stroke
*set color to black and change size to 1px*

then click ok.

next, click the text tool, and use a font that you want..
something bold looking should look nice
type whatever you want in size 38 (or obviously whatever you want)
set on the text the same settings as you used on the border, and play with the opacity if you want

hows that look? o_o
