by

Welcome to this tutorial on how to make a card on Webflow! In this article, we will guide you through the steps to create a visually engaging and interactive card using HTML and CSS.

Getting Started

Before we dive into the details, let’s make sure we have everything set up. Firstly, you’ll need a basic understanding of HTML and CSS.

If you’re new to these languages, don’t worry! We’ll break down the code for you.

Step 1: Create the Structure

Let’s start by creating the structure of our card. For this, we’ll use HTML tags. Begin by opening a <div> tag with a class of “card” to act as the container for our card elements:

<div class="card">
  
</div>

To add content inside our card, we can use various HTML tags such as paragraphs (<p>), headings (<h1>, <h2>, etc.), images (<img>), and more.

Step 2: Style the Card

To make our card visually appealing, we need to apply some CSS styles. You can do this either by adding inline styles or by creating an external CSS file and linking it to your HTML file.

To keep things simple, let’s add some inline styles directly within the <div class="card"> tag:

<div class="card" style="width: 300px; background-color: #f2f2f2; border-radius: 10px; padding: 20px;">
  
</div>

In this example, we’ve set the card width to 300 pixels, added a background color of #f2f2f2, applied a border radius of 10 pixels for rounded corners, and added some padding for spacing.

Step 3: Add Card Content

Now that we have our card structure and basic styles in place, let’s add some content to our card. For this tutorial, we’ll create a simple card with an image, title, description, and a button.

<div class="card" style="width: 300px; background-color: #f2f2f2; border-radius: 10px; padding: 20px;">
  <img src="card-image.jpg" alt="Card Image">
  
  <h3>Title</h3>
  
  <p>Description: Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetur adipisicing elit. Delectus tempora quam voluptatem exercitationem!</p>

  <a href="#" class="button">Read More</a>
</div>

In the above code snippet, we’ve added an image using the <img> tag with the source attribute pointing to “card-image.jpg”. We’ve also included a title using the <h3> tag and underlined it using the <u> tag.

The description is wrapped in a <p> tag, and we’ve made the word “Description” bold by enclosing it in the <b> tag. Lastly, we’ve added a button using the <a> tag with a class of “button”.

Congratulations!
