I don't usually do large square cards because they require a special envelope and frequently extra postage. But this sketch from Tuesday Morning Sketches calls for a square.

Very pretty, Donna! Your design looks a bit Moroccan. My desk almost always end up a complete mess when I make a card. I think I spend just as much time cleaning up as I do card making.
