    There's nothing built into Word to create your own picture border styles. However, you can write a macro like this:

    Sub FormatPictureBorder()
        With Selection
            .Borders.OutsideLineStyle = wdLineStyleSingle
            .Borders.OutsideColor = RGB(255, 0, 0)
            .Borders.OutsideLineWidth = wdLineWidth225pt
        End With
    End Sub
    

    Then you can give that macro a keyboard shortcut and/or add it to the Quick Access Toolbar to make it convenient to use.
