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

I would use grid if I were to start over. Using absolute positioning made making it responsive really annoying. I think it might be easier with grid.

I also would not make the whole card overflow: hidden; because at some very small screen widths (like 270px), it does need to overflow. overflow:hidden was helpful to make sure that my image and overlay had the same border radius as the card.

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

Getting the image to have a purple overlay and make the whole thing responsive at the same time was very challenging. I'm not really sure of the best way to make that happen. I ended up using a lot of absolute positioning but then I had to change a lot of that for the desktop size.

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

Is there a better way to do this than using absolute positioning? Would grid work better? How can I make an overlay cover a picture and not overflow at all?
