It has certainly been a trying year! May we be reminded in this Thanksgiving month to truly be thankful for the blessings we have in our lives above and beyond the trials!
I used et designs' October Mini O's contributions, Welcome November, entirely:

Font for text is Arial Narrow
Process: I clipped a paper and the photo to one of the masks. I added the elements at the top left to draw the eye to the title. I added a shadow to the word art and changed the color to make it pop against the photo. I made the text smaller and added a brush to the bottom right. I used minimal items in the layout so as not to detract from the focal point of the title. I hope I achieved that goal!
