Here are mine
I am only doing two cards today because I still have about 45 Valentines to make.....
My first card uses the two layer square punch, turned at an angle.....
Sweet Strawberry
The second card uses the square punch to make a glitter window. I love making glitter windows...they are so fun....
Sassy glitter window
I was in a pink and chocolate mood this morning!

Don't let that stop you! I think you could just cut squares from the CS if you don't have a punch. (correct me if I'm wrong) But to me the challenge is about the idea of using these squares, rather than actually using the punch.
I'm gonna try this a bit later after I run my errands

Here is my quick card using the square punches, its not great but its okay. I didn't realize I had Possitivly Pink instead of Pixie pink until it was too late and I didn't want to waste the paper. So it has a retired pink color.

newstamperamy has friends with square punches, though! Thanks for the heads-up on this challenge, Amy. I made this card a couple of weeks ago - VERY square happy! Year-Round Fun 2 is a great little set - I pull it out for all sorts of things these days.
I hope I do this link correctly:

This is not my most creative use of the squre punch, but I really like how this turned out. I'm almost done making valentines for my kids playgroup friends. Thanks goodness!
Here's my card (pending as of 12:30 CT)

You should still play and just cut out 1 1/4 or 1 3/8 blocks. You would still be using squares and that is the point. Come on and play!!!!!

Here's a paperbag layout that I made for something else today, and I just realized that I used the 1/4 square punch for my title.

I'm on a roll...three days, three challenges! For me, this was a no-brainer...by far my favourite thing to do with a punch!

I went out last night, and this hadn't been approved yet. Simple, but I like it. Hope you do too. Thanks for another fun challenge, Julia!
