Step 1. As always you need to begin by prepping your base. Crop, sharpen etc.

Step 2. Create a Curves adjustment layer with these settings:

RGB:

Point 1 - Input: 114 Output: 151

Point 2 - Input: 58 Output: 69

result

Step 3. Create another Curves layer with these settings:

Red:

Point 1 - Input: 124 Output: 135

Point 2 - Input: 28 Output: 55

Green:

Point 1 - Input: 121 Output: 152

Point 2 - Input: 60 Output: 85

Blue:

Point 1 - Input: 122 Output: 134

Step 4. Next make a Selective Color adjustment layer:

R: -76, 0, -12, +82

Y: -34, 0, +7, -10

G: 0, -100, 0, 0

C: +100, 0, -100, +100

N: +17, 0, -4, 0

result

Step 5. Finally I added this texture on Multiply 54% and added some text.
