So this is the image we'll start with:
STEP 1 - Crop it.
->
Then we want to sharpen it a bit.
STEP 2 - Duplicate the background layer (the only layer Du have right now).
(right click and choose "duplicate layer...")
Then go to FILTER>SHARPEN>SHARPEN
If the Icon ends up being too sharp, lower the layer opacity until Du like the result
Now we can start playing around with the colors.
STEP 3 - Make a "Selective Color..." layer and put the following settings(Layer>New Adjustment Layer>Selective Color)
Settings of the Selective Color Layer
Colors: REDS
0%
0%
-62%
0%
(method: relative)
This setting makes the pinks/reds in a picture Mehr purple-ish. It prevents the rosa from getting too reddish in later steps.
STEP 4 - Make a "Solid Color..." Layer with the color #c46f85 and set it to SOFT LIGHT 100%
(Layer>New Fill Layer>Solid Solor)
This step makes the whole Icon Mehr pinkish!
-> Try experimenting with different shades of rosa oder other colors!
STEP 5 - Make another "Solid Color" Layer with the color #eae8a7 and set it to OVERLAY 30%
This gives the Icon some yellow light.
STEP 6 - Now we're going for the sparkling effect- Add the following link on oben, nach oben of your layers
SET IT TO SCREEN 81% and Bewegen it around to place it where Du want it to be
STEP 7 - Duplicate your bottom layer which is called "background" and drag it on top! Then set it to SOFT LIGHT 100%
This adds contrast- if Du prefer Icons with less contrast, skip this step ;]
And now you're done =)) This is what your layers should look like if Du did it right
Other Icons made with the same settings:
