We will be going from this
to this


*INVOLVES SELECTIVE COLOR*

1. Crop/Resize, Duplicate two times, and set both to screen 100%.  I added a sharpen filter to the topmost layer.

2.  Add a selective color layer with the following settings :
Cyan. Cyan +100, Magenta -15, Yellow - 100, Black - 10. 
Neutrals, Cyan - 35, Magenta - 10, Yellow - 35, Black - 5.
Blacks, Cyan - 20, Magenta - 5, Yellow +25, Black +15

3. Add a brightness contrast layer.  I set mine to Brightness+18, Contrast+14.  It really, really depends on your picture and how you like it.

4. Add a Fill layer with #F8E9E9 and set it to color burn. 100%

5. Add a Fill layer with #EECE90 and set it to multiply 100%

6. Add another selective color layer with the following settings:
Red, Cyan +100, Magenta - 20, Yellow +100,
Yellow, Cyan -50, Magenta +25, Yellow -40, Black -20
Greens, Cyan -100, Yellow -100
Cyan, Black -100
Whites, Cyan, -100, Magenta -100, Yellow -100
Neutrals, Cyan +10, Magenta +10, Yellow -20, Black -10

7. Finally add this texture from ???
and set it to Overlay 100%, and voila!!!

I must stress the fact that you really, really, really just have to play around with the settings.  Please comment...and I would love to see your results.
