Attempt #3 - Image Card with Overlay Text

For my third widget, I designed an image card with overlay text, focusing on both visual appeal and user experience. Here are the key UX ideas I implemented:

  1. Rounded Corners: Used rounded-xl to soften the edges, making the card feel more modern and approachable.
  2. Shadow Effect: Added shadow-xl shadow-purple-500 to create depth, giving the card a subtle 3D effect that makes it stand out.
  3. Hover Interaction: Implemented hover:scale-105 to add a slight zoom effect on hover, enhancing interactivity and making the card more engaging.
  4. Text Readability: Applied text-2xl font-bold tracking-tight for the title and font-light leading-relaxed for the body text to ensure clarity and readability over the image.
  5. Balanced Layout: Used padding (px-6 py-6) to ensure the text has enough space, maintaining a clean and balanced layout.

Stay tuned for more widgets as I continue refining my UI development skills!
