1. Open the image for editing. |

2. Duplicate the current layer (Ctrl+J). |
|
|
3. On the new layer, apply a "Maximum" filter (Filter> Other> Maximum). Select a "Radius" that will remove most colours without losing its shape. Click OK. |

4. Duplicate the layer "Background" (Ctrl+J). |
|
|
5. With the new layer selected, apply a "Maximum" filter (Filter> Other> Maximum) and select a "Radius" at least twice the size of the "Radius" you've used in step 3. Click OK. |

|
6. Change the blending mode of the top two layers to "Overlay". |
