You could just make text and edit it in edit more then add a blue material to it. – Frederick Oct 30 '17 at 04:45

1look in to importing SVG. not a great solution, but really the only way to import it. – David Oct 30 '17 at 12:25

Two ways I know of...
Use Gimp or another photo editor to select the white background and make it transparent. Then save or export as a PNG with an alpha channel. Then in Blender user preferences. Turn on the import images as planes addon. Once you have that done choose import as plane and the image will come in without the white.
The other would be to use Illustrator or inskape and trace the bitmap remove the white area by deleting it. Save the traced vector as an SVG. In Blender turn on the import SVG addon in the user preferences. Then go and import the saved SVG.
The SVG way gives you an object you could extrude as well.
