Hi everyone. Happy July 2. I hope your weekend is going well.
It is time once again for Second on the Second over at Bleubeard's and Elizabeth's blog. Basically this means you just need to repost something you have already posted before. Easy peasy.
I picked out some pages from 2018 for Second on the Second this month. My pages go with Alison's challenge over at Art Journal Journey. As this is a new month, we have a new AJJ challenge, and this month the challenge is Come Fly with Me.
I copied some photos from multiple posts that had to do with my summer vacation that year. We had gone to Newfoundland for a week in early July. Here are some pages from my trip journal that work with Alison's Come Fly with Me challenge.
Notice the butterflies on these first 2.
And then in my daily journal I had this page with the plane.
Back to my trip journal, I had this page with my flight boarding stubs as well as a hand carved maple leaf stamp.
And here's a new page for AJJ from the journal I've been working on about my weekend trip to Charleston back in May of this year. I had flown down to North Carolina to visit one of my teacher friends who moved away from New Hampshire about 20 years ago but with whom I've stayed closely in touch. We took a roadtrip down to Charleston.
I used a sheet of printed paper that I cut down to fit the small 6 ring binder I was using. I added tape to the punched edge to be sure the paper held up when the pages were flipped.
I then added some textured paper I made with my recently refound paper texturing rollers, some washi tape and a pre-cut square tag that I wrote my info down on. I then added a punched out Art by Marlene plane as well as the punched out clouds.
I'm also going to link up to Gillena's Smile Sunday.
That's all for me today. Thanks for stopping by my blog.

Happy memories well preserved and presented!
Yay for art and exploring - have a great Sunday, hugs.
...I looked to fly, but not so much these days. Home looks great to me.
You are ahead of me, Erika. Newfoundland and Labrador is the only province I have never visited. Everyone tells me that I should rectify that omission without delay! Hugs - David
Fun pages. No flying today unless you can dodge the pouring rain. Sounds like a good day to hang out in the screen porch to read or nap.
What did you do with all the pages you have been making all these years? There must be lots of them...
I am so glad you chose to bring these back. I know I should have used Alison's theme, too, but it was too tempting to share the Patriotic images. I really LOVE how you shared each of these pages. I ADORE your hand carved stamp. It is fabulous and goes well with your Canada entry. And I am in LOVE with the flash card you used. I like that it is a different size than the one behind it. I really enjoyed the various trips you have taken and am so glad you shared these with us as your second look on the 2nd.
And now I am even more impressed that you have not only created a second look, but you also have a new entry which matches Alison's theme at AJJ. That printed paper looks strangely familiar. I've run a few (hundred) of those pages through the scanning machine myself. It made a great background, too. Still loving that texture paper from the texturizing roller. This was a really fun and very textural entry you have shared, dear Erika.
Lovely pages!
Happy to hear of your travels.
Have a good Sunday
Much💜love
Fabulous photos and journal pages, and love the new journal page for Alison. Have a great Sunday, hugs, Valerie
Happy Holiday weekend to you as well, Erika, and thanks for sharing a look back at your travels. You certainly have had some memorable ones!
Great pages Erika, and they are perfect for my theme at AJJ.
Happy Sunday,
Alison
