I don''t know what API you use in your game.
If you''re using Windows GDI you might do the Blit like this:

HBITMAP h_image; // handle to a bitmap you want to blit
HDC hdc_image; // handle to the bitmap device context
BITMAP image; // bitmap to be blited

// at first you have to load a bitmap from resouces
h_image = LoadBitmap(hInstance, MAKEINTRESOURCE(ID_OF_YOUR_IMAGE));
GetObject(h_image, sizeof(BITMAP), ℑ);
hdc_image = CreateCompatibleDC(hdc_dest);
SelectObject(hdc_image, h_image);

// now do the Blit
BitBlt(hdc_dest,x,y,width,height,hdc_image,0,0,SRCCOPY);

where hdc_dest is a handle to the destination device context.
