I would like to be able to add a text box over an image box in my hub site.

Is this suitable to what you are trying to do? https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-hub-documents/tips-adding-an-opaque-content-block/ta-p/920452

Looks like that is for background where this is specifically for an image card. That is good to know though, thanks.

Ah. Yes. Our image card is an actual image object, whereas the row uses a background image so it's more of a container, which makes it easier to place text within the container. Your best bet at the moment would be to embed text into the image using a photo editor. I like https://pixlr.com/editor/, but I'm told Canva is also very easy to use: https://www.canva.com/photo-editor/.
