I started to put this together for the Christmas contest using a stock model and a different idea in mind. I still might try the other idea but for now I think this works. I used 5 of my photos and two images of snow provided by Deviant Art. Thank you to Mimustock and MLStock.
No 3D rendering capability for my little laptop thus the snowglobe look was made from a Jelly Belly dispenser...mmm, Jelly Bellies... (5 years and 3030 days ago)

I LOVE IT!!!!! 
and I'm happy to give it my highest approving comment:
---WICKED-COOL!!!---
Not that you need it much but GL!
BTW, welcome to PXL!
Disturbing, but very creative! The jaw is too warped and the LH side of the "flames" is a bit too high contrast, fighting the image for dominance, but the overall concept is wonderful.
I'm glad that people like it, I don't 
No offence man, but there's just too much going on.
I get the skull breaking through her head skin, and the blood and the flames. But why do you need cigare smoke over the fire and 2 of the same rose on top?

Two images were clubed part by part.Both of them were a bit posterized.Image on the right side was photo filtered with a variety of orange colour.Mainly brush tool was used to paint.Pen tool was used to select the vase.A little blur effect was given.
Sorry guyz nothing from source 2 was used. (5 years and 3204 days ago)
the idea is quite nice...
good work...
Please post your valuable comments.
I think the blending of the two images needs attention where they meet in the middle. Lovely idea thought!
It's a nice idea, but I suppose source 2 is not valid (from blogs).
Source 2 is from blog. Please read http://www.pxleyes.com/blog/2009/06/how-and-where-to-find-legal-source-images/
I think you need to pay more attention to the size of the faces, it would be more effective if they line up well and look like the same person aged and un-aged.
thanq for ol da comments...
@raytedwell:-I thot tht when one gets old their face shrinks
