✨ Design Details

Industrial / Dark / Gold Welder Funeral Program Template

Steel & Gold was made for someone who worked with their hands — who knew the weight of honest labor and wore it without complaint. The dark, smoky background puts a welder right at the center of it, sparks flying, the kind of image that stops you for a second. Bold gold lettering spells out "MEMORY" across the front — part of the full "In Loving Memory of a Life Well Lived" header, all of it editable if you want to change the wording — and the name sits large and proud beneath it, the way it should. The back page holds the poem "If I Should Go Tomorrow" and a place for your family's own words, along with the scripture Revelation 21:4, which you can keep or swap for something that feels more like them. It's a program that looks the way they lived — strong, no fuss, worth remembering.

✨ What's Included

• Canva template link(s) delivered instantly via PDF after purchase
• Standard & Tabloid variants include two layouts:
  • Print Spread layout — pages arranged for duplex printing; print, fold, and staple at home or at FedEx, Staples, or your local copy shop
  • Reader Order layout — pages in sequential order for professional print software or print shops that manage their own imposition
• 12 pages included — use as few as 4 or expand by duplicating pages in sets of 4. No maximum.

💡 Not sure which layout to use? If you're printing at a professional print shop, ask them before downloading: "Do you need a print spread or reader order file?" Most home printers and copy shops like FedEx and Staples use the Print Spread. Specialty print software and commercial printers typically need the Reader Order.

✨ Printing Tips

• Laser: Laser printers produce professional-quality results with sharp detail and accurate color — 24–28 lb paper works beautifully.
• Inkjet: For inkjet printers, use a coated matte or semi-gloss paper (28 lb or heavier) at your printer's highest quality setting for best results.
• White border note: Standard home and print shop printers are not full-bleed printers — your program will print with a small white border around the edges. This is normal and expected. Simply trim the edges after printing for a clean, finished look.
• Local print shops like FedEx, Staples, and The UPS Store can print your program and will ensure professional color accuracy. Tabloid size (11" x 17") folds to a standard 8.5" x 11" booklet. Standard size (8.5" x 11") folds to a 5.5" x 8.5" booklet — a classic half-fold program size.

If you choose to add them, fees are charged directly by Canva. There are no additional charges from us after purchase — printing costs are separate and paid to your print shop.

Can I add my own photos and poems?

Can I edit this on my phone?
Yes — Canva works on mobile. For best results, we recommend a desktop or tablet for editing, especially when placing or blending the portrait photo.

How difficult is it to edit?
If you can type and upload a photo, you can do this. Canva is designed for non-designers — just click, type, and replace.

Can I change the colors and fonts?
Yes — colors and fonts can be adjusted in Canva to match your preferences.
