I'm trying to "replace" text with an image in all of my h3 tags. I want the image to be in the html to avoid multiple h3 classes as this is being done for a portfolio and there will be about 10 h3 tags on the page. My question is, will this be viewed as an attempt to hide, stuff keywords by google for seo purposes? If it will then does anyone know a better way to accomplish this?
CSS:
h3 {
    display: block;
    width: 156px;
    height: 44px;
    overflow: hidden;
}
Html:
<h3><img src="images/project001.png" alt="Recent Projects" />Recent Projects</h3>
