Lastly, there are tons of great resources on the Web for learning how to make CSS do exactly what you want. Most people who write and edit CSS teach themselves (and you never stop learning more about it, believe me, since CSS is always coming out in new, more flexible versions, like the currently still-in-prototype CSS3), and I'm sure you can, too (the fact that you were willing to mix languages together to get stuff looking right shows you're very willing to try, which is a wonderful thing). Most of us learn by doing exactly what you're doing...just fiddling around and asking questions and for help when you need it. All three activities are great ways to learn. You can also try the quick little exercises you'll find here: http://www.w3schools.com/css/
W3Schools is a really great reference. Look up any CSS code or fact that you want to know about CSS in Google, and most of the time, W3Schools will come up in the first few results, because their explanations are really simple and clear, and they almost always give you a way to try the CSS out first on their site before you try it on your own.
