# How to Add Image Text Cards to the Craft Theme

> Source: https://section-shop.com/theme-guides/craft/add-image-text-cards/ — Section Shop, 56 free native Shopify sections. Install: https://apps.shopify.com/section-shop

Multi-card grid layout showcasing image-text combinations in 2-4 column layouts. Features hover animations, customizable image ratios (square/landscape/portrait), and animated link arrows for engaging storytelling. This guide shows how to add the Image Text Cards section to the Craft theme with Section Shop — as a native Online Store 2.0 section, customized in the theme editor, without touching Craft's code. Craft is a free theme by Shopify, known for craftsmanship feel, warm minimalism — and image with text like this one are exactly the kind of section it doesn't ship out of the box.

## Why Image Text Cards fits Craft

Story-telling layouts pairing visuals with copy — splits, overlays, zigzags and card grids for brand and product stories. For Craft specifically, this is one of the strongest matches in the library: few options to show the making process, and Image Text Cards fills that gap while inheriting Craft's typography automatically, so it looks native from the first save. Use a zigzag Image with Text to walk through your process step by step — Craft’s typography makes it read like a story.

## Steps

1. **Install Section Shop (free)** — Add the app from the Shopify App Store. It's free, carries the Built for Shopify badge, and changes nothing in your Craft setup until you add a section.
2. **Find “Image Text Cards” in the library** — Open the app and browse to it — it's in the Image with Text category — or use search.
3. **Click “Add to theme”** — Section Shop writes the section into your Craft theme through Shopify's official theme API, the same mechanism Craft uses for its own sections.
4. **Open the Craft theme editor** — In Online Store → Themes → Customize, click “Add section”: you'll find it as “SShop:Image Text Cards” in the picker.
5. **Customize and save** — Adjust text, images, colors and layout. Typography follows your Craft font settings by default — or switch the section to any Shopify font. Hit Save and it's live.

## FAQ

### Does Image Text Cards work with the Craft theme?

Yes. Craft is an Online Store 2.0 theme, and Image Text Cards installs as a native OS 2.0 section through Shopify's official theme API. It appears in Craft's theme editor as “SShop:Image Text Cards”, alongside the theme's own sections.

### Will Image Text Cards match Craft's design?

By default the section inherits your theme's fonts, so it picks up Craft's typography automatically. Colors, spacing, images and content are all editable in the theme editor — no CSS required.

### Is Image Text Cards free, and what if I uninstall Section Shop?

Image Text Cards is free, like every section in the 56-section library. Once added it's a standard theme file: if you uninstall the app, the section stays in your Craft theme and keeps working.
