Saving a Photoshop image as a Word Template

I have created a stationary image in Photoshop that is an 8½ x 11 inch image then has a border around the edges that I would like to convert to a Word template. If I simply insert the image into a word document I am unable to type in the open space because Word won't let me type on the surface of a file I have inserted. How can I covert the stationary image I have created in photoshop to a word template so I can use it to create future Word documents?

    You can insert the image as a watermark, if you wish. It would then be repeated on every page in Word documents which are based on the template containing the watermark.

      Tried it and it worked like a charm. First I had to move all the margins back to zero before inserting the watermark. Then, after inserting the watermark, I was able to move the margins to an acceptable position before saving the document as a template. Thanks for your excellent suggestion.
