Far from enough info in this Q. – kaiser Sep 11 '11 at 20:13
The only thing we need to know is: "is the border a layer style?" – Luuk Sep 11 '11 at 21:31

You're prob being down voted because the answer is so elementary. It required more effort to come to this site and ask, than it would have to "Google it". "Create a border in Photoshop" returns 15.8 Million results. – Dawson Sep 12 '11 at 7:10

  1. Choose the color(to be the border) you want in your color palette.
  2. Image -> Canvas Size (increase this by the thickness of the border you want).

or

  1. "Select All".
  2. Edit -> Stroke -> then set the color, line width, inside.

or

  1. Select the layer of the image (if it's multiple layers, select them and create a smart object).
  2. Layer -> Layer Style -> Stroke...
