Export as Motion Graphics Template Greyed Out - only text and simple graphic

I am trying to save a simple little name intro that will slide in and then disappear from the bottom left.

 

This was two layers - the text itself and a black matte background layer that I transformed and changed to yellow. I created this in Premiere Pro, and NOT in After Effects.

 

I've tried exporting this combination for future projects as a Motion Graphics Template, but that option is greyed out when I right click on it and when I select Graphics and Titles from the top (see image).

 

 

I also tried "Nesting" the two layers, and the Motion Graphics Template option is still greyed out.

 

 

How do I save this for future use?

 

I don't want to have to re-open previous projects all the time and copy it over, because they may not always be on the same hard-drive and therefore couldn't be opened.

If you want to export a mogrt everything needs to be in one Graphic.

Multi layers or nest wont work.

Thanks for your comment. The text layer itself can be exported as a mogrt but the black matte background thingy won't on its own. But I can create text really easily - I don't need that saved as a mogrt. I need the animation on the black matte layer to be exported but it won't let me do that.
