About this template
Whether it is for one person or a whole group, the Copper Ornate Judge Appreciation Certificate gives organisations, schools and teams of every kind a traditional way to put a thank-you in writing. EB Garamond sets the title and Public Sans carries the details, with corner ornaments giving the page its character. It works just as well as a certificate of achievement.
Suggested wording
Copy one of these lines into the certificate, then replace the words in brackets.
For [Name]: thank you for the patience, the encouragement and the many hours behind the scenes.
With sincere thanks to [Name] for [Contribution]. Your generosity made a real difference.
In appreciation of [Name], whose time, energy and kindness helped [Organisation] through [Period].
How to customise it
Click any line to change it: the recipient’s name, the wording, the date, entries judged, rounds and final and the signatures. Colours are yours to change: try Oxblood & Brass, or match your own brand colours. Choose A4, US Letter or A3, in landscape or portrait, and the layout rearranges itself to fit. Text sizes adjust to fit, and you can choose another font for any line. There is an Arabic edition too, laid out right to left with Scheherazade New.
Printing tips
A cream, linen-textured paper of around 120 lb text (180 gsm) suits this classic layout. Choose A4 in Europe and most of the world, or US Letter in North America, before you download. Standard A4 and Letter frames fit it without trimming.
