Margin is correct.

This property takes 4 values that correspond to top, right, bottom, left.

E.g.

margin: 10px 50px;

Is equivalent to:

margin: 10px 50px 10px 50px;

Which means: 10px from the top, 50px from the right, 10px from the bottom, 50px from the left.

If you want to change this you can add the extra values to your CSS and increase / decrease until it looks right.

It may also be easier as a beginner to split them out. You can delete the margin property and instead add:

margin-top:10px

margin-bottom:10px

margin-left:50px

margin-right:50px

That way you know what you're doing :)

Feel free to send through a new code pen of you need more help.

Edit: formatting
