About this template
The Coral Wave Calm in the Chaos Award is a fun Calm in the Chaos Award template that office teams that like a laugh use to recognise the people who keep a team going. Original Surfer sets the title and Mulish carries the details, with flowing waves giving the page its character.

How to customise it
Every word is editable, from the title to the signature line, including the deadlines met and voice raised lines. Change the font or the size of any line if your text is longer than the sample. It works in landscape or portrait, on A4 or US Letter, without you having to move anything. The design comes with three colour schemes (Still Water, Lavender Hush and Sage Breeze), and every single colour can be changed. You can also upload a logo or a photo and place it anywhere on the page.
Printing tips
Use a smooth white paper rather than parchment, so the clean lines stay sharp. Download the PDF at the paper size you will print on (A4 or US Letter) and set the printer to “Actual size” or 100%. It fits a standard certificate frame or a document folder.
