First, you need to select the element with the class of logo and give it absolutely positioning, which you've done.
Secondly, you set your position offsets from left and the top, which you've also done.
Where you've done wrong is you've set .card
to also have absolute positioning. In order to set the context for .logo, you need to give .logo
relative positioning. What this means is .logo
will be set to move within .card
and not the root element.

536 PointsThank you. I took a break when I got stuck and reread the instructions after reading your post and it clicked. It even says "relative" in the directions. Just me overlooking the small details. Thank you for the fast response and helping me.
