Now go ahead and drag your render in there so it will look like this now:
or a an elliptical marquee tool
After you selected either one of them look up at the top of the screen where it says “Feather” and there is a little box next to it. Type in anything from 15 – 20 px. 
After that make a selection around you render (be sure not to select the parts you want to blend) like this: 
After you made your selection go to the bottom of the layers palette and click on “add layer mask” icon.
Congrats, now you took your first step towards blending your render. It should look like this now: 
Now you are starring at this window: 
Look at the bottom of the window where it says “Source” and there is a box next to it. Click on that box and select the name of the document you are currently working on. In my case it would be: Untitled-1. 
After you did that look down to where it says “Layer” and a little box next to it then click on the box and select merged (or the layer you want your render to be blended with) 
Now you will see that your render became too contrasted. This is the part where you play with Luminance,Color Intensity and Fade. Luminance is how dark/light your render will be, Color intensity is how much contrast will your render will have and Fade is how blended your render will be. You will also notice a little box called “Neutral” – what that does is blends the colors of the render with the colors of other layers to make them more settle. Sometimes this option works and sometimes it doesn’t it’s up to you to decide. Here are my settings: 
Bend the line just a little bit to darken your sig. After that go to Filter--->Render--->Difference Clouds Now go to Image--->Adjustments--->Auto-Contrast 
With your duplicated layer selected, change the blending mode to overlay 
. You can also change the opacity a bit too.
. Do this 2 times. Then select “from the right” option and do that 2 times too. After this go to Filter--->Blur--->Gaussian Blur Use these options 
Then move this layer behind your original one (you can change the blending mode to overlay if you want to) There ya go,this is what I came up with: 
. Duplicate your render layer Now with the duplicated layer selected go to Filter--->Blur--->Motion Blur. Use these settings: 
Now keep duplicating the layer you just made and place the duplicated layers all over your sig to make the background.Once you are done filling up the background go ahead and make one more duplicated layer and place it on top of your original (very first) render layer.Then set the blending mode to overlay. This is what your layers palette should look like: 
and this is what I came up with (including few adjustments): 
– as you can see this is a very primitive sig but I just gave you an example in terms of how you can use this effect.
. Select “single column” marquee tool from your tools palette.
Click on any area of your render document and press Ctrl+C. After that return to your sig document and press Ctrl+V Drag that layer behind your render layer so the layers palette will look like this: 
. Now press Ctrl+T and drag that little vertical line out, like this:
. Make it stretch out to fill the entire background. Now you have a simple background, after this you can play around with layer positions to see what fits you best.You can also apply some brushing to enhance it.Here is my final result: 
– That only took me just over a minute to make and I didn’t even color any of the layers. And no that doesn’t show how “good” I am.All these things will come to you automatically once you had enough practice.Do not be afraid to play with layers, Duplicate Them, Change their Blending Modes, switch them around whatever it takes. Be Creative! And remember that if you mess up you can always press Ctrl+Z
