http://codepen.io/JustinAHenderson/pen/WbqPEw This is a link to the Codepen. I know how to create a simple box layout, but wanted to get some more creative ideas that I haven't considered already? Thanks!

This will allow you to manipulate colors and shadow opacity all while viewing the syntax so you can learn from it in the process.
