First of all you need a lot of patience.Secondly five or ten cans of beer it depends on how complex a siggy has to be.Sometimes a break is needed as well.The rest is a piece of cake.

You mean the border? Okay, here a tutorial from me how you could do this in Paintshop pro, just to get some of you under way:
1. I've loaded your picture in Paintshop
2. Created a "Pictureframe on a new layer on top of the picture and also made a "Mask layer on top of both layers.
3. After making the pictureframe, I selected the white part with the "Magic wand" selection tool and pressed <CTRL>+<C>
4. Selected the Masklayer and pasted the frame I copied in 3 on the Masklayer. After pasting, I choose the function "Negative" to make the white black.
5. Deselected the stuff and saved as a png file for transparency and see the result.

After all this you probably would like to redo the text

imalko, I'm kinda partial to line drawing, especially pen&ink as I was supposed to be a graphics artist in my younger days. Oh well.
