The picture above is of a fire place, the three textures I used were a crack in the wooden floor, a pine tree, and a brick wall. I used the fire place as my original back ground and added the other images as layers and lowered the opacity of them so you could vaguely see the fireplace.
In this picture I used a different back ground. A snowy picture the outside of where I work. I used the pine tree as a layer in this one because of the theme, my second layer was a pine cone, this was all part of a specific theme I was going for.
The background used in this picture was of a street in NYC that I had taken in December. The layers used here were clouds from the plane, which gives it the white foggy look and then again I used the tree and the pine cone because for me this represented my favorite place to visit mixed with something that reminded me of home.
