How to put a border around an image

Post by caradelrae »

Hi there

I am "attempting" to help my 4-H kids with a project they are working on. They have a picture of a horse that they want to put a border/trace around so that when they cut it in scal they have an outline of the horse and a smaller filled version of the horse. Can someone explain how to do this?

Thanks

I have a question before I try and answer your request.

Do you plan to print the image and then cut the border around it or are you cutting the horse and want a border to cut also.

what kind of border are you thinking of? Just a square or something fancier.

All information will be helpful in getting you the right answer the first time.
