There are many ways to achieve this. You could use Grid or GraphicsGrid
(which produces a list of Insets), which offer a lot of placing and
formatting options, or e.g. ImageAssemble, perhaps in conjuction with
Rasterize.
Depending on what exactly you want to achieve, ImageCompose or Overlay
could also be helpful.

We want to do this using Mathematica; without the aid of Paintbrush, Photoshop or similar softwares. Wouldn't be nice to have a Mathematica function, perhaps called "Outset" (as opposed to "Inset"; and different from "Offset") to do this sort of trick? Thank you for your help!
