I was so inspired by the results you achieved on first entry (great colors and definition), I attempted to recreate them -- and then applied a few twists of my own.
* Duplicated original BG
* To the duplicate, applied Smart Blur / Edge Only; inverted results and set opacity to Soft Light
* Ran Diffuse / Anisotropic against the Edge layer to soften edges a bit
* Duplicated Edge layer and ran Sprayed strokes filter to give the edges a little texture; applied Unsharp Mask to enhance the effect
* Embossed, set blend mode to Overlay to apply the textured lines and achieve a little depth
* Added a layer filled with 50% and applied Texturizer/Sandstone filter; lowered opacity to 40% to let some of the texture through
* Hue/Sat and Levels adjustment layers to bring out colors and contrast
* Framed
Cheers!
