Hi, I'm trying to create a series of coloured blocks that contain an icon, a title and some text. This is the closest I have been able to get and as you can see from the code below, it's a bit messy. I have had to position the icon and the text manually, and the icon does not stay vertically centred as the screen is resized.

If anyone has a suggestion how I could code this more effectively I would be very grateful.

<style>
  
  .heading{
  font-size:1.2em;
  }
  
  .text{
  margin-left:60px}
  
  .imageplace{
   position:absolute;
   top:30px
   }
  
  .green{
  background-color:#c4e5c0;
  padding:20px 40px 20px 40px;
  border-radius:0px 20px 0px 20px;
  max-width: max-content;
  text-align:center;
  }
  
  </style>
  
  <div class="green">
  <div class="imageplace"><img src="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58762023893fc0d94810ba05/1663759321108-63ZII831I0JURY7W4V9T/guide.png?format=500w" alt="Cinque Terre" width="60" height="60"></div><div class="text"><span class="heading">At a Glance</span> – this is your daily protocol for phases 2 and 3 of the program, recipes included and some more test text to see how it resizes as i change the size of the viewport.</div>
</div><br>

Thanks for your answer, @bangank36. It kind of works, but when the screen width gets smaller, the image becomes tiny. I'm attaching a screenshot:

Thanks, @tuanphan and @bangank36, it does seem to work now. I'm not sure why the image was resizing for me before. I cleared my browser cache and restarted the laptop and it works now. The only thing is that the image aligns to the top of the container (see the screenshot). Is there any way that I can vertically align it to the centre?

Try adding this to Design > Custom CSS

.imageplace {
    top: 50%;
    transform: translateY(-50%);
}
