Borders to use in your Powerpoint Resources Free

(1)
This resource contains 20 plus borders that you can use for free in your Powerpoint resources. They are meant for older children, and adults. This is my first attempt at creating borders. I couldn't find what I was looking for to meet my needs on this site. Most borders on here are great, but too childish for my audience. This is why I have created a free product to see what you think. I would really appreciate your feedback on these. I have also included instructions on how to use these borders with Powerpoint. They are PNG files that need to be inserted and then possibly minor adjustments to sizing depending on your computer setup. I hope you enjoy using them. Please let me know what you think by emailing compcoachab@gmail.com.

Method one converts directly from Drive and Method 2 involves downloading a google conversion app. The steps are not difficult, but the benefits and time saving of this feature is worthwhile.
