About this template
Business networks, accelerators and chambers of commerce reach for designs like this one when they want to name a winner and make it official: a formal Family Business Legacy Award that looks as good in a frame as it does in a folder. On CerShare it comes in the Olive Grove colour scheme, with corner ornaments as the centrepiece; the lettering pairs Young Serif with Lato. You will also find it under Achievement on CerShare.

How to customise it
Click any line to change it: the recipient’s name, the wording, the date, est., generations and team members and the signatures. Need portrait instead of landscape, or US Letter instead of A4? Change it in one click. Colours are yours to change: try Bakery Cream, or match your own brand colours. Text sizes adjust to fit, and you can choose another font for any line. Add your logo, a crest or a photo and drag it into place.
Printing tips
A cream, linen-textured paper of around 120 lb text (180 gsm) suits this classic layout. Download the PDF at the paper size you will print on (A4 or US Letter) and set the printer to “Actual size” or 100%. Sign it in blue or black ink once it is printed for a personal touch.
