      <!-- This will cause the card to be removed when clicked -->
      <button type="button" class="btn btn-tool" data-card-widget="remove"><i class="fas fa-times"></i></button>

</div>
```

<div class="row">
  <div class="col-md-3">
    <div class="card card-primary">
      <div class="card-header">
        <h3 class="card-title">Loading state</h3>
      </div>
      <div class="card-body">
        The body of the card
      </div>
      <div class="overlay">
        <i class="fas fa-2x fa-sync-alt fa-spin"></i>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
  <div class="col-md-3">
    <div class="card card-outline card-primary">
      <div class="card-header">
        <h3 class="card-title">Loading state</h3>
      </div>
      <div class="card-body">
        The body of the card
      </div>
      <div class="overlay">
        <i class="fas fa-2x fa-sync-alt fa-spin"></i>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
  <div class="col-md-3">
    <div class="card bg-primary">
      <div class="card-header">
        <h3 class="card-title">Loading state</h3>
      </div>
      <div class="card-body">
        The body of the card
      </div>
      <div class="overlay">
        <i class="fas fa-2x fa-sync-alt fa-spin"></i>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
  <div class="col-md-3">
    <div class="card bg-gradient-primary">
      <div class="card-header">
        <h3 class="card-title">Loading state</h3>
      </div>
      <div class="card-body">
        The body of the card
      </div>
      <div class="overlay">
        <i class="fas fa-2x fa-sync-alt fa-spin"></i>

  <i class="fas fa-2x fa-sync-alt fa-spin"></i>
</div>
```

<div class="row">
  <div class="col-md-3">
    <div class="card card-primary">
      <div class="card-header">
        <h3 class="card-title">Loading state (dark)</h3>
      </div>
      <div class="card-body">
        The body of the card
      </div>
      <div class="overlay dark">
        <i class="fas fa-2x fa-sync-alt fa-spin"></i>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
  <div class="col-md-3">
    <div class="card card-outline card-primary">
