I love making square cards and my favorite are ones that are 4 1/4-inches square. The size is adorable and as a bonus fit in an A2 envelope. If you live in the US, this lets you avoid the surcharge that comes from mailing a square envelope.
My card base is Chocolate Chip (a color that I feel like I've been neglecting a lot lately) and I added a layer of So Saffron and some designer paper from the Sweet Pea designer series paper pack. The flower and sentiment are stamped in Rose Red and the leaves are Old Olive. I found some So Saffron brads so I added those in the lower left corner.
