We are going to recreate this awesome hover example:

We are going to use a two columns layout so let's first add a Normal Section and, inside that one, add a Row and set its structure to be two columns:

Adding and designing the Blurb Module

In the first column, add the Divi Blurb Module, and add your Title and Content. 

Set the Blurb Background Color

In the Blurb module > Content Tab > Background first, activate the Hover option by hovering over the Background text. This will let you enable the Hover options:

Set a Background Color of  #890089 - or choose any other color that fits your design.

Switch to the hover tab and set the opacity to 0.13. The Background color, in this case, will be rgba(137,0,137,0.13) :

Set the Blurb Background Image

In Content Tab > Background set a background image, in this example, the image used is 980x600px.

In the same section, set the Background Image Blend to Multiply:

Blurb Module's Text Design options

Switch to the Design Tab and set the Blurb Module text to be center align:

In Design Tab > Title Text > H4 set the Title Font Weight to be Ultra Bold or Bold and the Title Text Color to be #ffffff:


In Design Tab > Body Text > Body Text Color activate the Hover option and, in the Default Tab set the color to be rgba(255,255,255,0) , switch to the Hover tab, and set the color to #ffffff:

Blurb Module Spacing Design

Custom Margin

In Design Tab > Spacing > Custom Margin first activate the Hover option. In Default Tab set the top-margin to be 0. 

Switch to Hover Tab and set the top-margin and bottom-margin to be -20px .

Custom Padding

In Design Tab > Spacing > Custom Padding first activate the Hover option. In Default Tab set the following values:

  • Top: 32%

  • Bottom: 13%

  • Left: 5%

  • Right: 5%

Switch to Hover Tab and set the following values:

  • Top: 20%

  • Bottom: 25%

  • Left: 5%

  • Right: 5%

Blurb Module's Box Shadow

In Design Tab > Box Shadow choose the 3rd Shadow option:

The Box Shadow values will be:

  • Box Shadow Horizontal Position: 0px;

  • Box Shadow Vertical Position: 17px;

  • Box Shadow Blur Strength: 22px;

  • Box Shadow Spread Strength: -6px.

Activate the Hover option for the Shadow Color and set the following values:

  • Default Value: rgba(0,0,0,0) 

  • Hover Value: rgba(0,0,0,0.41) 

That's it, now you can duplicate this Blurb Module and place it in the Second Column, change the Blurb Background color and Background Image as well as Blurb Text content.
