Adding Circle Icon’s under Vantage Headline widget.

Hi,

I want to be able to get the effect of the title of the Vantage headline widget, where the title is displayed above a faint line that divides the title from the content. But instead of adding text to the content area I want to add 3 columns of Circle Icons. I sort of made it work by adding another row under the headline widget but this creates a larger than normal gap between the title and content. Any tips?

Thanks
