using PS CS2 [not translatable]<
a.) COLORING
1. Get your base, pictures with dark backgrounds with a bit of reddish tones works well with this coloring.

2. Then make a curves layer with these settings:
rgb - i:162, o:223
red - i:172 o :138
green - i:168 o:160
blue - i:121 o:144
>> 
3. Make a new adjustment layer using photo filter and input these setting:
photo filter : deep emerald
>> 
4. Then go to gradient map, use the black&white one, and put it on softlight 45%
>> 
5. Lastly, for the coloring, make a channel mixer layer and put these:
red : 115, -10, 24
green : -2, 110, 0
blue : 0, 0, 105
6. Merge all layers, and well, you can already stop here.

b.) DESIGN
1. Drag
and set it to multiply 100%2. Duplicate your base and bring it to the top and set it to softlight 100%, and move it a bit to the right.
3. I erased the parts of the softlight layer that covers the model.
4. Take
and set it to screen 100%5. Then, take
and put it to multiply 90%6. Duplicate that multiply layer and set it to softlight 30%
7. Merge all layers and add text/brushes/more textures if you want.
ta-da!
