Anita, this tut reminds me of the frames I've seen you use over the past several weeks.

BTW: I love what you posted. I always enjoy your puppy photos.

Thanks, Rusty. I will be using this mat technique many times.

You gotta have the black frame ... give the customer what she wants!

I'm probably not doing this right...my poor brain is having trouble with the guy's wordy directions. And I did add a linen finish to the mat/frame.

Nice results, everyone! I am surprised no bevels were used, since mats are bevel cut and the idea seemed to be to simulate a real mat. I think a 3D look is created and that works well.

Brother Rusty,
Thank you for the tut it came just on time as I'm designing a wedding album with 40 sides and I was just running out of ideas, LOL. The frame looks very delicate.
BTW shutterfreaks.com have some nice FREE frame Photoshop and Elements actions
Thanks,
Don
