3.) Duplicate base twice

4.) On your first duplicate (copy1) set to overlay with opacity 80

4.) Desaturate your other duplicate (copy2) Adjust / hue and saturation / Hue/saturation/lightness & bring the saturation down to -100. Set this layer to multiply 70 opacity.

5.) Layers / new raster layer. Flood fill with #847358 and set it to multiply 70 opacity.

6.) Now duplicate that layer and set it to soft light 100 opacity.

7.) It's a bit dark so ... Layers / new raster layer. Flood fill with white #ffffff and set it to soft light 60 opacity.

8.) Finished off by adding 'escape' in century gothic size 10 and also added tiny text brush.
