I'm sorry if I was not clear, I was talking about the image, vector mask borders, I can do that using rmarquee tool but how to dothis with the shape tools.
 
Still not sure what your talking about.............there are many images in your example. Which part are you calling a vector mask?
 
OK!

I don't know that this is a vector mask. It was probably a layer mask.

You have a background consisting of however many images you wish.

If you truly want a "vector mask", then that will take a different approach. You have to generate a path which can then be used to create the vector mask.

You can convert the selection to a path - Tut Vid.
And then use the path to make a vector mask.

Did this help answer your question?

Sorry, you may have viewed my response before I was finished editing!
 
My main concerns are:
A. Isn't there a quick way for the paper torn effect (a ready made shape) maybe? So I don't have to use pen tool to create the whole shape.
