About My first CodePen challenge 🥳 The goal this week was to pick one of two card templates and give it some 💜. I went with the template that had an image. Lately I've been experimenting with mix-blend-mode and SVG stroke animation (CSS Only 😎), So I thought it'd be fun to incorporate that into this challenge. I've also been playing board games recently! That inspired this approach too. I wondered how a digital card might feel, with interactive elements and selectable abilities. Any Problems? Not too much. I was unable to successfully group SVG definitions to the top of the file though. While I could define and call them with: fill="url(#card-texture)" , I was unable to hide that separate SVG block without it affecting the patterns themselves. So I ended up giving up on that... I then had to chase some problems across Firefox and Safari. Got most sorted, however the magnifying glass mix-blend-mode doesn't seem to work there 😔 I think it's conflicing with the transform animation that's happening. When I get some more energy I'll look into that some more, or just try to check for browser-support and fallback to a lower opacity fill.
Credits MagicPattern For the God Rays Generator , which I used to add a bit of flair while hovering over the card. Pattern Monster I made use of their Scales generator for the dragon egg and card back. Hero Patterns For the faint card texture overlay (More noticable on the back).
