Thanks Tony, that was perfect using the grids, everything lined up
nicely.

I did a google search and found that there were ways to move
guidelines around after they are placed on an image, but is there any
easy way to move the entire grid so that it aligns with specific
elements of your design or is it pretty much fixed in place, can't be
moved?

Not that I know of. There's a work-around if want to go to the
trouble. Make a template. Open new file the same size as the sheets
you'll be printing. View your grid or your guidelines, use the pencil
or brush tool with a fine point and (holding down the Shift key) draw
lines over the grid or guidelines. Save that file as "Template".

(The brush or pencil tool moves exactly vertical or exactly horizontal
if you hold down the shift key while making the line.)

Now bring in your images in a layer or layers above the template
layer. With the template layer active, use the move tool to place it
in the position where you want. You can shift it in any increment any
direction. Use the move tool to place the images over the template
positions. Save as a .psd with a new name in case you want to change
things later.

Once you have everything in position, delete the template layer,
flatten the image, and Save As with a new name. The template file is
available for the next use.
