Ribbon Wrap – much more than a hover effect
You hover over the element, the ribbon slides out from behind it and wraps around. CSS ribbons finally move.
There are endless possibilities with this CSS3 tool. It’s super easy to implement and has plenty of preset colours and styles (but customising is simple!).
Make sure to view the video preview to fully understand how cool this thing is!
What can I use it for?
Titles & descriptions of images
Ribbon Wrap can be used as a beautiful hover effect for image descriptions, photo credits, illustration titles, or whatever else you can think of!
Mix it in with content
Ribbon Wrap can be treated as in inline element to be part of the usual flow of content, or can be positioned in a way to cover content when it’s hovered.
Using Ribbon Wrap’s static mode, it can be treated as a more “traditional” CSS ribbon without any animation.
Social strip
Have a strip of social media icons slide over your chosen element when hovered.
Tool strip
Tool-style icons can be used instead. There’s even a vertical setting.
