I can't personally recommend one as it's not something we do much of, but if nobody can help, have a read of this.

I use either Microsoft Picture Editor or the one on W11 that opens when you click on one of your pictures Ann. Both are free but may not be as good as Picasso was, as I never got round to trying that.

I have used Canva Ann. I don’t know if it’s suitable for what you want to do. :-)

Yes Ann. I thought it was straight forward. You could download it and see if it does

what you want.
