    how to create "Picture Frame" effect???

    Mark Embrey Community Member

      Hi,

       


      I'm an Illustrator newb -

       


      I have a jpeg woodgrain image which I've imported and used masking with a rounded rectangle to create a nice effect for the outer part of what I want to be a "picture frame" but, for the life of me,

       

      I can't figure out how to cut out the interior part and leave it blank or transparent

       

       

      any ideas?

       

      many thanks,
