Used the image of the San Francisco bridge, house and palm tree as my background, thanks to Davis Paul Ohmer on Flickr.
Brought into photo shop and used the filter Gallery/cutout

Used all the other stock images to make up the elements of my poster using the Filter Gallery/dry brush apart for the cardboard texture, used that as a final element to make the poster look more antique by using multiply.

Thanks to susiwunder, saavem, ShadowRave and paulgeor at www.sxc.hu for the great stock images

For the oranges I used this fantastic tutorial
