WT883~It's Hip to be Square~ 2/10/22

[peeps321]

Do you find yourself gravitating toward one shape when you’re searching for a die cut? I realized the other day that I probably use more rectangles when I cut an image. So in keeping with our Ways to Use it goal of utilizing more of our stuff, let’s be square this week. Huey Lewis told us “It’s Hip to be Square”. To honor Huey, let’s get out our square dies and square stamps. Layer squares, cut a single square, or stamp an image that’s square. Make it CAS if you like. So now that you have that song in your head….ready, set, be square!

When uploading your project, remember to use the keyword WT883 so we can see your creation in the gallery. It also helps if you link your project on the Ways to Use It thread, too.

Here's a link to our Square gallery

Thanks Polly for the challenge !
Unfortunately, we try here to make as few square cards as possible because they require additional stamps to send !

[hobbydujour]

I don't often make square cards either......they probably wobbled in my A2 envelopes. I have no inclination to buy or make a square envelope.....and then pay additional postage. Needed a quick card that would be hand del'd(in an A2) Thanks, Polly.

GOLFER'S BIRTHDAY

[Crafty Julia]

Great challenge! I made half square triangles by hand- so they are a bit wonky- adding a washi tape wood border on 3 sides. My card was inspired by Shoe Girl's Birthday Squares card- so wonderful!-.
I added a red paper heart shaped doily for my wood loving beaver. Here's Wood You Be Mine?

[cjzim]

Thanks, Polly. I love making square cards; just wish we didn't have to pay extra to mail them!

Thank you, Polly, for the chance to use squares on a card. I love a window card and can’t seem to get away from using the Soaring Swallows Bundle. Here’s my card.

Polly- had to revisit this challenge- had leftover triangles, cut them in half and made rows of mini half square triangle pairs! Combined with today's heart challenge- here's my card- F4A625 WT883 Hearts and Squares

[askloeblen]

Thanks for the fun challenge, Polly! I saw Huey Lewis in concert the year that song came out, so yeah, that song is now stuck in my head. <LOL> And like you, I tend to reach for my rectangle dies far more often than my square ones for some reason.

I am playing Challenge cardmaking, and hopefully, doing some catching up on some as well.

Challenge: Make a square card or add a square to your card. I chose to add a square to my card in the overlay portion of my Side Front Flap Fold card, which measures is a 3-3/4" square.

This card is for my oldest son's half-century birthday...yes the BIG 50! Here is my card: It's the BIG 50!
