See an idea for using PS here

or, if you're using some kind of page layout software like Quark - put it in a rounded corner box and set the stroke value and color as desired. Can also modify the radius of the corner.

Additionally, use the shape tool on a different layer, then copy the image and paste inside.

You can create rounded rectangles in Photoshop.

In Photoshop 7's Tool Bar, it's the ninth button down (under the Type Tool). Button is called Rectangle Tool but if you hold the button, you get a flyout on which there is the Rounded Rectangle. You can vary the radius of the corners, make the shape into a path or selection and therefore add a fill, stroke or feather its edges etc.
