How to Style Divi Blurbs with a 3D Hover Effect

First we need to create a new section with 4 columns. Then we need to create 2 Blurbs. One for the front side and one for the back.

It should look like this

Then we need to add the class blurbs_3 to the section row.

It should look like this


Add the class front in the Blurb Module.  And we need to add the class back to the Blurb we are going to use in the hover.

It should look like this

Now in the first Blurb settings. Content > Add in your Text here. Choose your icon in the icon settings. In the design settings make sure you select white as the icon colour. Icon placement is top.

Now it gets interesting! In the Advanced Blurb Module setting we need to add 2 bits of code.

Main Element:

border: 1px solid #d7d7d7;
cursor: pointer;
-webkit-transition: all 0.6s ease-in-out;
-moz-transition: all 0.6s ease-in-out;
-o-transition: all 0.6s ease-in-out;
-ms-transition: all 0.6s ease-in-out;
transition: all 0.6s ease-in-out;

It should look like this

Second bit of code we need is this.

Blurb image:

background-color: #cc0033 !important;
padding: 3vw !important;
margin-bottom: 23px;

It should look like this

Now in the second Blurb settings. Content > Add in your Text here. We have ‘Find out more’ here. Again you will need to choose your icon in the icon settings. In the design settings make sure you select white as the icon colour. Icon placement is top.

In the Advanced Blurb Module setting we need to add 3 bits of code.

Main Element:

background: #cc0033;
width: 100%;
top: 0;
height: 100%;
position: absolute;
transform-style: preserve-3d;
-webkit-transform: rotateY(180deg);
-moz-transform: rotateY(180deg);
-o-transform: rotateY(180deg);
-ms-transform: rotateY(180deg);
transform: rotateY(180deg);

It should look like this


Second bit of code we need is this.

Blurb image:

margin-bottom: 13px;

It should look like this 

Third bit of code we need is this.

Blurb content:

top: 50%;
transform: translate(0%,-50%);[/css]

It should look like this

The last step is to add in the CSS in your child theme or the Divi theme CSS box.

The css:

.blurbs_3 .et_pb_column_4_4 h2:after{
content: “”;
display: block;
width: 131px;
height: 1px;
background-color: #d7d7d7;
