Hi there!
How do I go about creating a jagged edge as is the case of the white background to the photo(strawberry and kiwi)?

Quite easy. You have the template there in front of you, the photo. You draw along one of the sides to get the shape of the jagged edge. Then you use that line to cut away the sides of any photo frame you like:
If someone tried to make me dig my own grave I would say No.
They're going to kill me anyway and I'd love to die the way I lived:
Avoiding Manual Labour.
Here's another technique. Once you have the brush you can save it and apply it to any shape.

I think it's called a deckel edge and Tony's solution is brilliant.
Once you add the brush shape outline to the rectangle and have adjusted the line width to your satisfaction, you can convert the line to shape (Arrange menu). Then it becomes a simple vector shape.

I notice that Zakiyya has P&GD2013 that means he/she has the eraser tool, a decorative edge can easily be achieved by just erasing the edges roughly. Adjusting the roundness and angle can give you a bit of a different look and if you have a graphics tablet you can do this very quickly.
