About this template
Made with anyone who needs a certificate in mind, this Blank Certificate helps you celebrate a goal that has been reached without starting from a blank page. Yesteryear sets the title and Cormorant Garamond carries the details, with leaves and branches giving the page its character. You will also find it under Appreciation on CerShare.

How to customise it
You can rewrite the whole certificate, or keep the sample wording and just change the names. Fonts can be swapped too; the defaults are Yesteryear and Cormorant Garamond. The design comes with three colour schemes (Sage & Eucalyptus, Blush & Olive and Dusk Blue & Fern), and every single colour can be changed. Need portrait instead of landscape, or US Letter instead of A4? Change it in one click. Add your logo, a crest or a photo and drag it into place.
Printing tips
Use a smooth white paper rather than parchment, so the clean lines stay sharp. Print one copy on plain paper first to check the spelling and the margins. It fits a standard certificate frame or a document folder.
