Might look at clipart
http://office.microsoft.com/clipart/...0019701033#288 Try your hand at drawing an irregular frame with the drawing tools, add a shadow. BorderArt does have a torn edge border. -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com http://officebeta.iponet.net/en-us/p...649111033.aspx "C4B" wrote in message ...

And if you have MSPicture It! or MSDigital Image ....the Designer Edges called, Wavy Torn Paper or Rough-Edged Paper might be what you are looking for. -- ******John Inzer******** **MS Picture It!

I use SnagIt to copy a region of the desktop to the clipboard. Once copied,
SnagIt allows for many effects including Drop Shadow Edge, Fade Edge, Torn Edge, Wave Edge, Saw Edge, Sharktooth Edge and Beveled Edge. You can see examples at http://www.myscacc.org/newsletters.htm There is two examples on the page and in several of the recent Newsletters starting on page 3.

It is way cool - and it's on $40 (I think). That's a nominal cost for this
package. It even has a trial period. Download it and have some fun. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Steve in NC" wrote in message ink.net...
