There's something extremely beautiful about this entry! Great job! I love it!
Lelaina says:
I'm in love! This is such a great picture! For me it looks almost a little bit melancholic with your choice of colours and well... just the composition. And I really love the little car, that is flying there, that makes it even more special. Good luck!

Merry Land... - created by Nellista
I first carefully selected the merry-go-round in the source image, by using the pen tool.
Then I added the trees and gras backround and the clouds and sky. I blended them as good as possible using layer's masks. Colored them and gave them shadows.
I added Christmas lights using a very useful PNG file and baloons, also from a PNG package.
Added poppie field and changed blending mode to overlay. Blended it in.
I added more glow to the lights by using multiple layers with different blending modes (screen and color dodge), plus I added gaussian blur.
I added some gradient adjustment layers for coloring, brightness/contrast, and some soft brushes touch in some areas to enlighten them.
Credits to:
1. "Pyrator" on Flickr for an amazing backround image, at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/fire_brace/.
2. "Bluesse" on deviantart for an amazing stock, specially the PNG Packages which I strongly suggest that you go and have a look, they are extremely useful and totally awesome. Please visit account at: http://bluesse.deviantart.com/.
3. "obsidiandawn" for another great PNG package, the Christmas lights, which are usually very hard to find on the web. Official site at: http://www.obsidiandawn.com/.
Hope you like it! (5 years and 3544 days ago)

amazing work, great interpretation of the goal
wow.
excellent imagination! good work
nice entry. meets the theme well
It is green, just a few different shades. Some more towards yellow & others more towards blue but it was intended to give a bit more depth to the tree.
Nice job with this, I really like the color combination, very pastel and the tree looks like a flocked retro one. Very Festive.Good Luck to you!!
beautiful
