Help in placing object behind trees

I am very VERY new to GIMP, so I apologize ahead for dumb questions.
I tried looking for youtube guides on my problem, but couldn't find anything useful.

Here's image of the forest I have:

I want to place this object behind the trees, on the far side, so it's barely visible (blur it with the foggy lightning too)

However, I encountered problems immediately as I have problems getting the "object" behind the trees - magic wand doesn't help as it the fog messes up tree silhouettes to select them and the copypaste above the "object".

Should I use a mask? If yes, what kind of and how? (I know how to create masks, but don't understand how to use this function in this case if it is even applicable at all)

Please, point me in a direction of a guide on how this is done or explain yourself - I appreciate ANY help
Thank you!


This can be done if you have two layers of the forest and one layer of the house.
1. Open the forest and duplicate the layer.
2. Open the house as a layer and bring it down so it is in the middle of the two forest layers.
3. Then changing the layer mode to addition while you have the top layer selected and you will get this
