Ribbon effect with CSS? WordPress

  • SOLVED

Hi Guys

I have created a site with some content boxes on the home page and my client wants ribbon effect behind the title.

Here are the boxes: http://screencast.com/t/cfgj9I22ckT


Here is the design they want: http://screencast.com/t/Flox8OxkPSw


Can I do this with CSS?

Many thanks
Steve
