It would've been a lot easier for me if I had just taken a photo of a cracker on it's own but instead I had to use the clone tool to erase all of the jam on the cracker from another piece. This took a lot of time to put right. After doing this it was simple, make a 'C' out of the cracker. Using the lasso tool I would cut out a part of the cracker which make it resemble a 'C' and to some it would look like a bite mark. I then copied and pasted certain small parts of the cracker around it making them look like crumbs. The overall idea is pretty simple by the way. After doing this I would then cut out an 'S' from my Mirror shine piece to go over the top of the cracker. The end result of the piece wasn't as good as I initially planned but I suppose it is better than nothing. I then added a light bevel and emboss to the 'S' to make it stand out a little more. After doing this the piece was more or less finished but I didn't want just a plain white background (although it didn't require anything else I the background because the picture itself is a sort of centerpiece) so I just used the pen to to make sorts of metallic lightning bolts with bevel and emboss texture to slash across parts of the background. After doing this (and it's not great) the piece was finished.
Below are the photos used to create this piece...
