step one
prepare your base how you would normally prepare it. even if your base is slightly dark, i would suggest not adding any screen layers here until you've finished the tutorial, or adding them now but NOT merging the layers. if you still need them when you've finished the tutorial then come back and add them then. =]
step two
create a new fill layer, and fill it with #ACD373. set that to soft light 100%.
step three
create another fill layer, and fill it with #FFF568. set that to color burn at around 20%. you may need to play with this one a little.
step four
duplicate your base, set it to screen and drag it to the top. according to how dark your base was, you may need to do this twice. for my icon, i did it twice.
step five
create a selective colour layer, and apply these settings;
Reds -100 | +12 | +5 | 0
Yellows -100 | 0 | 0 | +28
Neutrals +33 | 0 | -35 | 0
step six
create a new hue/saturation layer, and up the saturation to around +22. again, you may need to play with this layer.
step seven
copy merged, and then past as a new layer. set that layer to soft light, and you're done!

i'd love to see some results. =]
