I'm still not sure what the issue was, although I was able to create a frame in CA from shapes. But, over in DP, I was able to use images snagged from the interwebs, use the crop tool, get the pattern or texture to show up, save it as a PNG file, and then add it to CA. Multi-step, but I think this was the same issue I ran into a few years back. It's probably do-able in CA, but I was having a heck of a time, and finally went over to DP to complete the process. And, even there, it didn't seem to work with every image used.

What can you do in DrawPlus that you can’t also do in CraftArtist?

I've been reacquainting myself with the process of creating my own frames for use in CA, using DrawPlus to create the frame, exporting as a PNG with transparency, and then adding it into CA. If there's an interest, then I'll figure out how to produce a tutorial on the process.
