Create a border around your image
- To create a stroke or border around your image select the
rounded rectangle shape you just created and copy it by
clicking Command-C/Control-C.
- Create the effect by selecting both the image and the
shape and going up to Modify>Mask>Group as Mask.
- Once your mask effect is complete, click
Command-V/Control-V to Paste the copied shape back in the
document.
- Once the shape is pasted, remove the Fill and set the
Stroke to your liking. Align the stroke on top of the shape
and you're all set.
The reason you copied the shape was to ensure you got an
exact match for the stroke. You could go back and redraw the
stroke over your masked shape but it would be more difficult to
get the precise settings.
