in what application are you trying to achieve this?

Why not try a graphical package? GIMP for example? Or Paint, which is already on the PC?

In Publisher, use the Rounded Rectangle in AutoShapes then insert text in it if going for a text box with rounded edges. Or insert Word Art and pick appropriate shape then you can "Order" it and send it to back for background. Good luck!
