My goal is to create a ripped/lined paper effect using CSS mask. It's working well and looks good. However, I'm struggling to apply the mask at the top as well. Here's what I've tried so far:
mask-image: linear-gradient(white, white), url("https://www.isorauschen.at/ripped-paper.svg"), url("https://www.isorauschen.at/ripped-paper-mirrored.svg");
mask-position: bottom, top;
mask-repeat: repeat-x, repeat-x;
mask-size: 400px auto, 400px auto;
If there is a better way to achieve this, please let me know. I opted for the mask because it also clips all the background and other lines.
