Hi friends!

Sometime I wont to rest from drawing and choose another job.
At example, making a photomontage.
It's very fascinating process too.

As a basis, I took a free photo from Pixabay

I started with delete a background

Then I found on NASA's site some beautiful images of cosmic scenes and paste one of their as a back.
The moon and a stars I drew with brush tool (of course, I making a digital collages in Adobe Photoshop, it's a best programm for this work)

In net step I making a color correction with adjustment layer Hue/ Saturarion

Then I did set one of basic brushes to drew a hoarfrost on branches (on new layer)

Then I added one cosmic image to make a sky more beautiful and colorful

Some snowflakes I placed on a earth, thick under the tree.

It already turned out beautifully!
But I still didn't like a blades of grass in the foreground, they also needed to be decorated.
I maked so: open new file with the same size as my work and lunch a wonderful plugin Corel ParticleShop
If you don't know, it's toll can created wonderful shining patterns other forms.
I drew a pattern what liked me, save it in separate layer and then drag it in my work
That's what happened!

It seemed to me that it was too saturated and I changed blend mode of pattern to Soft Light

Now I decided to add a shine on a frost branches.
I copy a layer with hoerfrost, blur it with Gaussian blur , set a bland mode as Lighten and replace it under original layer.

Finally, I choosed a brush in a form of fantasy butterflies, choosed white color and drew with it on foreground.

The last steps remained - more color correction and sharpness.
All is ready!

Have a nice and creative day!
