    =======================

    with photoshop most likely

    first off youll want to cut out the subject and place on another layer, use different brushes as mentioned here

    http://www.nextdesigns.net/modul…
    and/or
    http://neondragonart.com/dp/tuto…

    to create the order, size, and shapes of your sparkles using white paint

    duplicate that layer

    your layer order from bottom should be background, sparkles subject sparkles

    erase any of the sparkle from the top layer that intersect with the edge of the subject to give the effect that the sparkles are surronunding the subject

    finally use the channels on the sparkle levels to fine tune your color

    or

    use the select all nudge function to select your sparles and fill them in with a new color on a new empty layer allowing you to use layer styles ie multiply screen and opacity to determine your sparkle colro and intensity

    you should have 6 layers at least back ground subjuect and four for sparkles

    good luck
