Creating a border and turning in

Finish up your light masterpiece today and add a border. One way is...
Once you have finished, merge all layers and click Fx--> Stroke. Change "outside" to "inside". Adjust for size and color.

If merging your layers makes you nervous, you can create a new layer, use rectangular marquee to raw a rectangle on the inner portion of the border, press CTRL-SHIFT-I to grab the outer border, and paint bucket a selected color in the empty space. See below for an example.
Draw inner square with rectangular marquee

Hit CTRL-SHIFT-I to invert the selection

Paint bucket a color sampled from your image


Finished early??
