a) Insert WordArt and rotate it using the green rotation handle.
b) Insert a text box and rotate it using the green rotation handle.

Thank you Ed, that is a great start. Now how do I get the text box to be 
flush with the picture- outer edges of the photo, it runs off the sides. The 
ones I have seen fit dlus. I am trying to do a post card and brochure and 
stay within the "blue" guide lines. Thank you!

Resize the text/WordArt object?

Or do you want the edge of the picture to cut off the edge of the text?

Hi again, thank you so much for your prompt reply!  I can resize no problem, 
what I can't figure out is how to line up the diagonal box to fit flush 
diagonally on the border of the picture-  will it automtically print without 
the overflow lines-box in the margins? (The excess box off the sides of the 
picture- over the blue guideline?)
