For those who are interested in seeing how it was made… here is a brief description about it..

How is it made?

Stars, Balls and Bells:

1. All the Stars, Shining Bells etc, are made using 3-D Bubble graph.
2. For bells, stars etc., to oscillate on a circular path like a pendulum, I have taken x and Y axis using formula y= SQRT((ABS(1-x*x))).
3. To give them a look of Stars, Balls and Bells, I have uploaded pictures in the Bubble graph rather than filling different colors.
3. To oscillate on specific time interval, I have used a VBA code.

Glowing Bulbs

1. Glowing bulbs are also created using Bubble Graph.
2. To make them glow in different size, I have used RAND() key to generate random size number.
3. I have embedded 2 different colors of bulb picture in the Bubble graph and added a glow outside of them.

Snow flakes Background

Using simple REPT() and RANDBETWEEN() formula, I have displayed different characters like, Snow man, Snow Flakes etc in different cells in whole background.
