How to position/ add padding on buttons on

Question

I'm having trouble trying to adjust my buttons positions. I want to add a padding-top thing but they don't move! I've tried a lot of things so any help is very welcome!

Also I don't know why I have to use 'cols: 2' so many times for them to be side by side...

I'm adding a photo of how it is:

this is how it looks like

this is my kv file:

GridLayout:
    cols: 2
    EvidenceButton
    UploadFileButton

<EvidenceButton>:
    cols: 2
    MDFillRoundFlatButton:
        text: 'Button 1'
        size: 150, 45
        size_hint: None, None
        font_size: '16dp'
        text_color: 1, 1, 1, 1
        md_bg_color: app.theme_cls.primary_color

<UploadFileButton>:
    cols: 2
    MDRoundFlatIconButton:
        text: 'Button 2'
        size: 150, 45
        size_hint: None, None
        font_size: '16dp'
        text_color: 1, 1, 1, 1
        md_bg_color: app.theme_cls.primary_color

Pleas provide a [mcve]. – John Anderson Feb 11 '21 at 21:38 — John Anderson, Feb 11 '21 at 21:38
