To do that, simply right click on the copy 2 layer, and choose Convert To Smart Object.

step-006a

Set the Foreground color to #c3a15f, and the Background color to #93713a.

step-006b

Go to Filter -> Sketch -> Reticulation. Change the Density to 10, the Foreground Level to 10, and the Background Level to 20.

step-006c
step-006d

Next, go to Filter -> Brush Strokes -> Ink Outlines. Change the Stroke Length to 17, the Dark Intensity to 0, and the Light Intensity to 10.

step-006g
step-006h

That’s it for the Filters. If you want to play around with the values you can do that by double clicking on the “Filter Gallery” to get into the Filter’s dialog box. Make sure to do any modifications before you move to the next step, because we are going to rasterize this layer.

step-006i

Step 7

Righ click on the copy 2 layer and choose Rasterize Layer..

step-007a

The layer is no longer a Smart Object now.

step-007b

Go to Image -> Adjustments -> Hue/Saturation, (or press Ctrl/Cmd + U), and change the Saturation value to -50.

step-007c

Go to Image -> Adjustments -> Color Balance, (or press Ctrl/Cmd + B), and for the Midtones, change the Color Levels values to 35, -7, and 29.

step-007d

Change the copy 2 layer’s Blend Mode to Soft Light.This will give a nice red tone to the texture.

step-007e

Step 8

Create a new layer on top of all layers and call it “Frosting”. Then, set the Foreground color to #eae2cb and the Background color to #c3a46c. We are going to apply the Layer Styles for this layer before drawing the frosting, as this will make the drawing process easier and more precise. So double click the “Frosting” layer to apply the following Layer Styles.

step-008a

– Drop Shadow: Change the color to #ad7b40, the Distance to 3, and the Spread to 5.

step-008b

– Inner Shadow: Change the color to #9c958f, the Opacity to 100%, and the Size to 13.

step-008d
