Step 2 — Setting Up the basic structure

In this step, we will add the HTML code to create the basic structure of the project.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">

<head>
  <meta charset="UTF-8">
  <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
  <title>Blog card design 2021</title>
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
</head>

<body>

</body>

</html>

This is the base structure of most web pages that use HTML.

Add the following code inside the <body> tag

<div class="container">
    <div class="cards grid-row">
      <div class="card">
        <div class="card-top">
          <img src="img1.jpg" alt="Blog Name">
