1.) Start with your base. Sharpen once. (Filter>Sharpen>Sharpen).
2.) Duplicate your base. Desaturate (Image>Adjustments>Desaturate) Set this layer to Screen (Opacity=100%).
3.) Next is this texture:
set to Overlay, Opacity=70%.
4.) Use this gradient:
. Set it to Hue, opacity=100%.
5.) Next up is a light texture, this one:
. Set it Screen, Opacity=100%.
6.) Now we get to add a brush! Apply this brush:
in white. (I had to apply it two times over so it didn't go see-through, but depending on your picture...)
7.) TEXT!!! Apply the text where the brush was (that's what it's for). Here are my settings:
Font: Miss Brooks
Color: #000000 (black)
Size: 14 pt
Text: Fading Star (you can choose what you like, of course)
8.) Now, the last step is to apply a 1px black border. Then you're done! Can you believe it? :-D
