Great starter, Sepiana! Selected the top part of the stalk and the bird separately. Formed them into a wreath and added the bow and Welcome sign from StockSolo. Door background also from StockSolo.  |

Applied lithograph effect to the image - added bird back in and blended with the colour blend mode at 70% opacity just to bring back a little colour. BG from Pixabay Other Bird images I had done before some time ago. They are from Pixabay, stamp shape from pngegg, postal stamp from cleanpng.  |

Tony, a great idea coupled with a perfect execution. Very surreal indeed! (And a twofer to boost.) |
