Photoshop shape bauble

I started by making the composition of the baubles. I used a photoshop shape for this. I copied and resized the shapes I merged the shapes and then I clipped a solid paper on them. A photo was clipped to a Snowy Fotoblendz. I placed it under the baubles. I didnt like the result so I clipped a copy of the photo to the baubles layer and I blended it in on Screen Blending mode. I liked them better in white. I placed a backgroundlayer and some brushes and transfers. I blended a wordart in one of the baubles. I placed the elements and the title. I made another bauble out of the photoshop shape and I clipped a paper to it. I painted a bit of blue color in with a brush. I placed the wordstrip. I added some strokes. And some transfers came over the baubles layers as well. The hanger and little metal part at the top of the ball in the layout was created with MultiMedia Holiday No. 3 elements. I merged the layers and did some sharpening.
