This year I've added a fun new game to our Month of Holiday Cards Challenge...
A Treasure Hunt!
To play, simply find the secret code word that has been posted somewhere in a previous November challenge. It will look similar to this (but without the highlighting):
Code words will only be posted somewhere in previous November challenges, but it could be from any of the last eleven years! Once you've found the word, come back here and post it as a comment. The first person to do so will win a $10.00AU store credit at Beccy's Place. Happy hunting!
CODE WORD: Santa
ReplyDeleteI'm struggling to find anything and I am probably the slowest by a long way but just found SURPRISE written in italics that looked out of place on the post. Was expecting to see Code Word: (and whatever the word was). I'll keep looking but I'm running out of years
ReplyDeleteFound it. Probably the slowest to find it.

I was just about to announce MY code word as MERCY after going backwards and forwards in my Way-Back Machine until my finger had blisters, ready to concede defeat, admit that I was no Treasure Hunter and that Indiana Jones' job was safe ... WHEN ... I came to near the end of my third trip of scrolling-scanning-scrolling-scanning and YAY - I found the code word - the CODE WORD is Santa - and it can be found on "Day 20 - R" post from 20th November 2023.
ReplyDeletePS - I'm relieved that I don't need new glasses or eyeballs :)
PPS - THANK YOU for the Treasure Hunt Beccy, it reminded me of so many techniques I wanted to try and designs that inspired, so it has been a wonderful journey!
PS - just in case I my brain was still to fuzzy from scrolling or my blistered scrolling finger not typing straight:
ReplyDeleteCODE WORD: Santa

CODE WORD: Santa I'm not sure I understand this, but I did fine this.
ReplyDeleteWell, I looked, but didn't find it!
ReplyDeleteSorry I missed the fun. Work went crazy 30 min before I got off and now I have to go back in. So you don't tell us the word we are just looking for "CODE WORD". By chance will you make it yellow like in the example to help us out?!
ReplyDeleteWow - congrats to ALL who figured that one out - I looked for a long time last night before crashing... with crossed eyeballs for sure! Best part was seeing so many fun designs along the search. Isn't that how life is - we find the best treasures along the life path when we're least expecting it.
ReplyDeleteI went back through November 20, 2023 twice. Still haven't seen it.
