About this template
The Forest Green Starry Lifetime Achievement Award is a traditional Lifetime Achievement Award template that employers, boards and clubs use to honour years of loyalty. With scattered stars and Vollkorn headings, it has a traditional feel, while the Emerald Velvet palette keeps the colours rich. You will also find it under Achievement on CerShare.

How to customise it
Every word is editable, from the title to the signature line. Choose A4, US Letter or A3, in landscape or portrait, and the layout rearranges itself to fit. The design comes with three colour schemes (Bordeaux Velvet, Emerald Velvet and Midnight Velvet), and every single colour can be changed. Fonts can be swapped too; the defaults are Vollkorn and Albert Sans. There is an Arabic edition too, laid out right to left with Markazi Text.
Printing tips
A cream, linen-textured paper of around 120 lb text (180 gsm) suits this classic layout. In the print dialog choose “Actual size” rather than “Fit”, so the border isn’t cropped. The background is dark, so a laser printer or a print shop will give the richest colour.
