Horizontal masonry layout with flexbox CSS only [duplicate]

Here is one option using wrapped columns, but it requires a fixed height.

.card-container {
  display: flex;
  flex-flow: column wrap;
  height:100vh;
  align-items: center;
  background-color: #888;
}

A better option for CSS masonry layout is to use columns, an example is on this blog post http://w3bits.com/css-masonry/

.masonry { /* Masonry container */
    -moz-column-count: 4;
    -webkit-column-count: 4;
    column-count: 4;
    -moz-column-gap: 1em;
    -webkit-column-gap: 1em;
    column-gap: 1em;
}

.item { /* Masonry bricks or child elements */
    background-color: #eee;
    display: inline-block;
    margin: 0 0 1em;
    width: 100%;
}
