You can look at the code here, it does exactly what you want: http://codepen.io/orhanveli/pen/tbGJL
The code from the website:
HTML
<!-- Lets create a CSS3 stamp -->
<div class="stamp">
<!-- the image -->
<img src="http://thecodeplayer.com/uploads/media/css3logo.png" />
</div>
CSS
*{margin: 0; padding: 0;}
body {
background: #B1d202;
padding: 100px;
text-align: center;
}
.stamp {
width: 280px;
height: 180px;
display: inline-block;
padding: 10px;
background: white;
position: relative;
-webkit-filter: drop-shadow(0px 0px 10px rgba(0,0,0,0.5));
/*The stamp cutout will be created using crisp radial gradients*/
background: radial-gradient(
transparent 0px,
transparent 4px,
white 4px,
white
);
/*reducing the gradient size*/
background-size: 20px 20px;
/*Offset to move the holes to the edge*/
background-position: -10px -10px;
}
.stamp:after {
content: '';
position: absolute;
/*We can shrink the pseudo element here to hide the shadow edges*/
left: 5px; top: 5px; right: 5px; bottom: 5px;
/*Shadow - doesn't look good because of the stamp cutout. We can still move this into another pseudo element behind the .stamp main element*/
/*box-shadow: 0 0 20px 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);*/
/*pushing it back*/
z-index: -1;
}
/*Some text*/
.stamp:before {
content: 'CSS3';
position: absolute;
bottom: 0; left: 0;
font: bold 24px arial;
color: white;
opacity: 0.75;
line-height: 100%;
padding: 20px;
}
.stamp img {
}
You could use the mask-box-image
property to do this.
FIDDLE
See this html5 Rocks article on masking
<img src="http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/masking/adobe/humayun-thom-arno.jpg" />
img {
-webkit-mask-box-image: url(http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/masking/adobe/stampTiles.svg) 35 repeat;
mask-box-image: url(http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/masking/adobe/stampTiles.svg) 35 repeat;
}
If you want to only have the borders on the top and on the bottom of your image you can create this by using pseudo elements.
.stamp {
margin-top: 50px;
margin-left: 50px;
position: relative;
width: 500px;
height: 300px;
background: #bbb;
-webkit-filter: drop-shadow(3px 3px 1px black);
filter: drop-shadow(0px 0px 5px white);
}
.stamp:before {
position: absolute;
top: -20px;
display: block;
content: "";
background: radial-gradient(circle, transparent 15px, #bbb 16px);
background-size: 50px 40px;
background-position: -20px -20px;
width: 100%;
height: 40px;
z-index: -1;
}
.stamp:after {
position: absolute;
bottom: -20px;
content: "";
display: block;
background: radial-gradient(circle, transparent 15px, #bbb 16px);
background-size: 50px 40px;
background-position: -20px -20px;
width: 100%;
height: 40px;
z-index: -1;
}
body {
margin: 0;
background-color: #333;
}
<div class="stamp">
</div>
