CSS Drop Cap - L

L for Lickity Split. Set in Olea Script Swash Caps from Google Fonts, this letter evokes a candy store to me.

The candy stripe effect is a background gradient image applied, with an animation on the background position. This simple animation creates a nice "corkscrew" effect on things like loading bars and barbershop poles. Full code here: http://codepen.io/alltimelowe/pen/eZOMQb
