Companies like Extensis publish filters that can add all sorts of
borders.

Note that, except in certain limited concepts, adding borders in
Photoshop is a dead giveaway that an amateur worked on the image. You
should never add borders to anything that you plan to actually put on
paper as a photo print.

Yeah, I never even liked the darkroom techniques for putting frames
around photographic prints. But that aside...

If you want to take a look at some of the plugin packages available to
do that go to <a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://www.publishingperfection.com" target="_blank">www.publishingperfection.com</a> and check out the Photoshop
plugins that are available (or get a copy of their catalog).
