I have finished creating thenew examples section 

   http://imagemagick.org/Usage/thumbnails/#frame_edge

as well as uploaded my own  picture framing script

   http://imagemagick.org/Usage/scripts/frame_edges.tar.gz

However it may take a day or two for these to appear on the offical
IM Web site.

I have not gone into doing the next level of complexity, involving
tiled framing images with special corner pieces, as yet.

For example framing a image with 'ivy' with nice corner handling.

Actually I can't even start on this technique until I get framing images
of this type!!!


I have also not given examples of doing the cardboard inserts.
Summery...

When you use a cardboard overlay with a picture in a framign shop, you
will find that the cardboard is generally off-white (color-snow) with
various internal colors.

When the hole is cut out of this carboard a 45 degree bevel is used in
the cut, which allows that internal color to appear.

Here is a way of achieving the same effect...

   convert rose: \
           -bordercolor Snow   -border 1 \
           -bordercolor Sennia -border 3 \
           -bordercolor Snow   -border 30 \
           rose_cardboard_overlay.png

My framing script also does this, selecting the 'inner' color
that matches the framing images.
