1Open the image you want to use, or create a new document. If you're starting a new image, let's give it some color by making a diagonal gradient with the Gradient Tool (see example). Using the Lasso Tool, create a semi-round selection with jagged edges: to make it more realistic, drag the lasso tool slowly while moving your hand up & down, left & right.
2Switch to Quick Mask Mode and use Filter-> Pixelate-> Crystalize with setting of 3.
3Switch back to Standard Mode and save the selection (Select-> Save Selection). After pressing OK, fill the selection with white (Edit-> Fill) or whatever other color your heart desires. Then choose Select-> Modify-> Expand. You can enter 4 or 5 (depending how big edge you want). Now, switch to Quick Mask Mode again and choose Filter-> Blur-> Gaussian Blur with setting of 3.
4Now, go back to Standard Mode and choose Select-> Load Selection and make sure your saved selection (should be called Alpha 1 or #4) is selected in the Channel dropdown. Check Subtract from Selection and press OK
5Time for some color! Choose, Image-> Adjust-> Hue/Saturation and click the Colorize check box. Set the Hue to 14, Saturation to 31 and Lightness to -61 (or adjust to your preference).
