We'll start with this:

And end up with this:

1) Open your picture. Make a new layer. Use #c0b594 and fill the layer. Set it to Vivid Light at 58%

2) Make a new layer again. Use #908cb0 and fill it. Set it to Saturation at 73%.

3) New layer. Take #a76707 fill it. Set to Lighten Colour at 31%.

4) Take this awesome texture I found and set it at Lighten Colour at 31% again.

5) Now take this brush and use the colour #af9f9f and brush the left side. Just brush it up and down. I personally then set it to hard light. You don't have too, it's just what you would like.
Here's the difference:

6) Now to put text on the side like mine. Go to image > rotate canvas > 90 degress CCW. Now type! After typing whatever you want image > rotate > 90 degress CW.

7) Now hopefully you know how to use the pen tool. To make the dotted lines go to windows > brushes or F5. Click brush tip shape. You see the spacing at the bottom make it 350-400. You're choice. And Voila!
