Ho! Ho!
Made up an imaginary scene tonight with this old photograph of my husband and his mother; I liked the idea of Santa having just got out his car and coming to load the sleigh with presents! 
I clipped the photograph to a fotoblendz, duplicated with the top layer in hard light mode. The Santa figure was created by layering three of the Santa transfers from the AP one on top of the other. I sandwiched one of the transfers set to colour mode between the photo layers; that created the pop of red behind the trees. In the background more transfers were layered one on top of each other. I clipped one of the Artsy papers to a ModGrunge fotoblendz to create the sun then layered this on top of another made white. Behind both is a Warm Glow.
To finish I created a little cluster with elements from the AP and thread from Beaded threadz (without the beads) and a couple of excerpt wordarts ( I created the Ho! Ho! by copying an 'O' from another excerpt and layering on top of Ha! Ha! which is what the original said). Final touch was creating a soft border with Stained Edge Overlays.
