If I understood correctly, what you are after, you mighty have some
luck with http://www.gimp.org/tutorials/Sketch_Effect/ as the first
stage, followed by bringing the results of that tutorial to a
background image  filled with the blue color. Needless to say, you
will probably have to remove background objects from your original
JPEG files, so that  they don't end up in the picture.
