<p class="has-drop-cap">So after the half-century birthday card brigade of last week, I took a closer look at what Mimi at <a rel="noreferrer noopener" label="All My Layers (opens in a new tab)" href="https://www.instagram.com/allmylayers/" target="_blank">All My Layers</a> has been up to — and oh my! I&#8217;m so thrilled to be able to share a peek here. But before I get into her cards, take a gander at this season&#8217;s inspiration board. I think you&#8217;ll agree that there&#8217;s nothing here that&#8217;s not utterly fabulous!</p>

<p>As the above hints, Mimi&#8217;s latest collection is a most marvelous world to experience! Life is rarely simple, but to Mimi, all those layers are mysterious and even magical. </p>

<p>These cards promise to be even more dazzling in life, thanks to lots of gold foil as well as this brand&#8217;s belief that great design starts with a great paper, luxuriously thick but also earth-friendly. Greeting cards are printed on FSC-certified paper using environmentally-friendly inks, while cotton papers are made from 100% recovered cotton fibers. Envelopes come from mills that practice responsible, sustainable forestry using renewable energy sources such as hydro power or wind power. </p><div class="inline-post clearfix"><div class="see-also byline">See also</div><div id="block-wrap-89118" class="block-wrap-native block-wrap block-wrap-23 block-css-89118 block-wrap-classic columns__m--1 elements-design-3 block-ani block-skin-0 tipi-box block-wrap-thumbnail ppl-m-1 clearfix" data-id="89118" data-base="0"><div class="tipi-row-inner-style clearfix"><div class="tipi-row-inner-box contents sticky--wrap"><div class="block block-23 clearfix"><article class="tipi-xs-12 clearfix with-fi ani-base tipi-xs-typo split-1 split-design-1 loop-0 preview-thumbnail preview-23 elements-design-3 post-10015635 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-favorites category-papernerd-at-large tag-noted-2 tag-design tag-east-end-press tag-emily-mcdowell tag-emily-on-life tag-empathy-card tag-evergreen-podcasts tag-fugu-fugu-press tag-glassware tag-good-juju-ink tag-greeting-card-association tag-greeting-cards tag-guest-post tag-holly-whitaker tag-homework-letterpress-studio tag-jigsaw-puzzles tag-ks-design-co tag-letterpress tag-lisa-congdon tag-martha-beck tag-ornaments tag-paper-farm-press tag-pier-six-press tag-screenprinting tag-stationery-blog tag-stationery-design tag-stationery-designer tag-stationery-sets tag-stationery-trends tag-subject-to-change tag-tea-towels tag-the-greater-goods-alliance tag-the-paper-fold tag-the-paper-fold-podcast tag-the-paper-nerd tag-top-drawer" style="--animation-order:0"><div class="preview-mini-wrap clearfix"><div class="mask"><a href="https://thepapernerd.com/noted-emily-mcdowells-take/" class="mask-img"><img width="100" height="100" src="https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/EastEndPress.jpg?resize=100%2C100&;ssl=1" class="attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail wp-post-image" alt="" srcset="https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/EastEndPress.jpg?resize=100%2C100&;ssl=1 100w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/EastEndPress.jpg?resize=120%2C120&;ssl=1 120w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/EastEndPress.jpg?resize=275%2C275&;ssl=1 275w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/EastEndPress.jpg?resize=372%2C372&;ssl=1 372w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/EastEndPress.jpg?resize=567%2C567&;ssl=1 567w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/EastEndPress.jpg?resize=882%2C882&;ssl=1 882w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/EastEndPress.jpg?resize=24%2C24&;ssl=1 24w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/EastEndPress.jpg?resize=48%2C48&;ssl=1 48w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/EastEndPress.jpg?resize=96%2C96&;ssl=1 96w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/EastEndPress.jpg?resize=150%2C150&;ssl=1 150w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/EastEndPress.jpg?resize=300%2C300&;ssl=1 300w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/EastEndPress.jpg?resize=50%2C50&;ssl=1 50w, https://i0.wp.com/thepapernerd.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/EastEndPress.jpg?zoom=2&;resize=100%2C100&;ssl=1 200w" sizes="(max-width: 100px) 100vw, 100px" /></a></div><div class="meta"><div class="byline byline-2 byline-cats-design-4"><div class="byline-part cats"><a href="https://thepapernerd.com/category/favorites/" style="color:#b79b0d" class="cat">Favorites</a><a href="https://thepapernerd.com/category/papernerd-at-large/" style="color:#b79b0d" class="cat">Papernerd At Large</a></div></div><div class="title-wrap"><h3 class="title"><a href="https://thepapernerd.com/noted-emily-mcdowells-take/">*Noted: Emily McDowell&#8217;s Take</a></h3></div><div class="byline byline-3"><span class="byline-part date"><i class="tipi-i-calendar" aria-hidden="true"></i> <time class="entry-date published dateCreated flipboard-date" datetime="2024-05-08T15:16:45+00:00">May 8, 2024</time></span><span class="byline-part likes-count"><a href="#" class="tipi-like-count " data-pid="10015635"><span class="likes-heart"><i class="tipi-i-heart-o" aria-hidden="true"></i><i class="tipi-i-heart" aria-hidden="true"></i></span><span class="tipi-value">0</span></a></span></div></div></div></article></div></div></div></div></div></tipimidc>
