I did this one for my daughter's birthday. The background is done in Xara Xtreme and the cutout parts were from photos imported into Xtreme. I outlined the various parts with the Freehand Tool, then selected the outline and the photo and did an Intersect Shapes (Ctrl+3) to cut them out. I exported each part as a PNG file, True Color + Alpha, to make the background transparent.

Then I put it all together in Moho, added bones, and animated.

This is done in the JibJab style.

I hope she likes it.

The electric guitar section in the middle cracked me up! I think you nailed the jib-jab style perfectly.
