I was inspired to make this card after watch Julie, a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator's video. The quadrilaterial card was not her original idea. Check out her video HERE. I added an additional layer and changed one of her measurements.

I use liquid glue on 90% of my cards now. It is economical and I believe it holds layers together better. I glued the DSP down first, stamped the sentiment and then I applied to glue to the WW layer and placed down the embossed layer.
