I am trying to make a logo for my homepage. I want the words "Fanmail 3D" to fade to a lined version of "Fanmail 3D'. I have two layers... Bottom Layer 
Top Layer 
I want the top layer to fade into the bottom layer. Is there a way to use the gradient tool to make the top layer gradually become transparent, allowing the lined words show up so half of the image is in normal writing and the other half is lined? -Adam
