Default Labels w/ borders

I am trying to put art borders around the labels. Instead the border is going around the whole page and I want the border around each label. Can anyone help me?

if you select the whole document and go to format under boarder/shading, click on the boarder tab and on the right of that box, you can select all and then pick your line shape.

Except that (1) many label formats have blank cells that shouldn't have a
border and (2) this won't apply a graphic design border. However, using the
borders/shading dialog is about the only simple way to apply a border to a
label. Otherwise, you are pasting graphics into labels and that is a real
headache.

Border Art is available only for page borders in Word. If you want it on
table cells (or individual labels), you'll have to use Publisher.
