At raimoncoding, we're embracing the winter spirit with an exciting new addition to our website: buttons featuring a beautiful cloud and snow effect! We've taken our designs a step further to bring you a touch of winter wonderland right on your screen.
How did we do this? With a bit of CSS magic! 🧙♂️✨ We combined a copyright-free cloud image with our existing snowflake images to create this enchanting effect. Here’s a peek at the code we used:
.button {
/* Multiple background images for the snow and cloud effect */
background:
url("../images/cloud.webp") no-repeat center, /* Cloud image centered */
url("../images/snow75.webp") no-repeat 25% 0, /* First snow layer */
url("../images/snow75.webp") no-repeat 50% 0, /* Second snow layer */
url("../images/snow75.webp") no-repeat 100% 0, /* Third snow layer */
-webkit-linear-gradient(right, #B1C6D9 0%, #8AB0C9 50%, #6997B9 75%, #3E7FA9 100%); /* Linear gradient background */
/* Ensures that each background image does not repeat */
background-repeat: no-repeat, no-repeat, no-repeat, no-repeat;
/* Positions each snow image, cloud image and gradient */
background-position:
center, /* Position of the cloud image */
-20% -70%, /* Position of the first snow layer */
20% -70%, /* Position of the second snow layer */
80% -70%, /* Position of the third snow layer */
center; /* Position of the linear gradient */
}
Here's what each part of the code does:
Multiple Backgrounds: Layering different images of snowflakes (snow75.webp) on top of each other, creating a dynamic and realistic snow effect.
No Repeat: Ensuring these snowflake images don’t tile across the button, keeping them in their specified positions.
Background Positions: Controlling where each snow image is placed on the button, creating the illusion of snowflakes scattered across it. The -20%, 20%, and 80% values determine the horizontal placement, while -70% controls the vertical position.
Linear Gradient: Creating a color transition for the button’s background, adding depth and a wintry feel to it.
This combination of a cloud and snowflakes results in a unique and eye-catching design, merging snowflakes and a serene cloud against our buttons' backdrop. The outcome? A playful yet stylish touch that suits the wintry days.
Let us know what you think and if you find it as magical as we do! ☕🧣
