You can copy the images sequentially to a new image that you make at least as large as the two images you're trying to merge. You can get the dimensions using ctl-alt-I, for the information of each picture. Then add the dimensions for the dimension of the new image, so both images fit. It maight be useful to pick a transparent background. Then copy and paste each image to the new image, selecting layers - layers, channels, paths - then new image to convert the floating image to a new layer, for each image. Then magnify hugely depending on how close you want the match to be, and line up the edges of choice as close as you want them by using the "move" tool or whatever its called. Then do flatten image.
