    display: inline-block;
    margin: .25em;
    padding: .5em .75em;
    text-align: center;
    /* Color fallback */color: #fff;
    -webkit-background-clip: text;

    -webkit-text-fill-color: transparent;
}

.clip-text:before,
.clip-text:after {
    position: absolute;
    content: '';
}


.clip-text:before {
    z-index: -2;
    top: 0;
    right: 0;
    bottom: 0;
    left: 0;
    background-image: inherit;
}


.clip-text:after {
    position: absolute;
    z-index: -1;
    top: .125em;
    right: .125em;
    bottom: .125em;
    left: .125em;
    background-color: #000;
}


.clip-text--no-textzone:before {
    background-position: -.65em0;
}

.clip-text--no-textzone:after {
    content: none;
}

.clip-text--cover,
.clip-text--cover:before {
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    -webkit-background-size: cover;
            background-size: cover;
}

.clip-text_one {
    background-image: url(http://lorempixel.com/480/200/abstract/7);
}

<divclass="clip-text clip-text_one">THIS IS CUT OUT</div>
