A few easy steps in ps7.
L1- Original image
L2- Dup L1, filter-brush strokes- crosshatch 10,20,1. Then filter-stylize- find edges, edit - fade find edges - luminosity blend opac100. Next, artistic- cutout 8,0,2. Next, artistic - dry brush 0,10,1.
L3- Dup L2. Usm 50,250,0. Increase saturation +25 or so.
