Making Psds/ Colorings for various edits isn't a complicated process, but it depends a lot on the image you select. A psd made using one image as a base may not work on the other images. When I say 'work' it means that the resulting look of the image may not be impressive. So it's really important to create such a psd which works on multiple images.
Making Psds mostly involves use of adjustment layers, gradients, color fills, and textures.
Let's get started on how to make a Psd
I'm using this image:
To make a psd to give a 'whiter' background in this image.
step 1: Open your this image in Photoshop. My version is CS6
step 2: select 'Vibrance' from the adjustment layer and set it to 100.
step 3: Next click on 'selective color' layer and use the following settings:
step 4: Select 'Gradient Map' adjustment layer and choose the 'black and white' gradient map. Make its blending mode as 'Soft Light' and reduce opacity to 75%.
The image now has an a whitish/greyish background. I have continued to create the psd in the following manner:
step 5: Add a 'Curves' adjustment layer and use the following settings
step 6: I've added another 'Selective Color' layer with the following settings
BTW, it's not a necessary for a psd to have too many adjustment layers. Don't have such misconceptions. It may have as few as 2 layers and as many as 30 to 40. Everything depends on the image.

step 8: This step is completely optional. I've added another 'Gradient Map' layer for the final look:
How to group your layers:
Click on the 'briefcase' button which is right beside the adjustment layer option.
Select all your layers and drag and drop it onto the group.
So this is how our final image looks like
