Blog preview card with semantic HTML5 markup

What are you most proud of, and what would you do differently next time?

I'm pretty happy with the HTML markup used, and tried to utilized semantic rules as much as possible. I think there might be a bit more that could be done, but I'm happy with what I came up with. Getting the layout right has always been a struggle for me, but I feel like what I ended up with is pretty decent here.

What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?

Layout is still a challenge, but I'm slowly understanding how things work together. I struggled a bit with the alignment of the card content, and had resolved to using a grid layout. I ended up changing that up at the last moment to use flexbox instead, and relied on a fixed padding size.

What specific areas of your project would you like help with?

Any feedback is welcome. I have 10+ years as a backend developer, and a couple decades in general programming experience, but UI and CSS/HTML has always been a weak point.
