Cards briefly describe and link to a piece of content.

These are very useful for landing pages that guide users to content further down. You can use image-based or text-based cards depending on your needs. 

Tips on images:

  • Use horizontal images. Vertical ones will have parts cut off. 
  • Do not use text within the image; use the heading and text in the card instead. 
  • Use photography instead of graphics when possible.
