First open the original file you want to modify, and back up the background layer. Use the tool to pull out the image you want to keep (many of the methods, no longer detailed here), feather 2 pixels and then copied to the new layer. and name this layer as the "primary layer."

In order to produce the effect is not affected by the original color, so we have to the main layer to perform " Go Color " processing (shift+ctrl+u). This step is very important.

Then hold down the CTRL key and click on the main layer to get the selection of the main layer image. Create a new layer above the main layer and add the appropriate yellow to the new layer.

The next step is to modify the filling layer mode to "multiply", while appropriately modifying the opacity of the filling layer.

Keep the selection, then add the Adjust layer hue \ Saturation, adjust the hue appropriately in the dialog box to select the best gold color, and increase the degree of saturation.
