Unfortunately I'm not an artist and had to use one of your svgs with
this sample. I choose the strawberry.svg made by Nicu Buculei.

SVG exported from Scribus:
http://koti.welho.com/rleino/scribus_border/strawberry_border.svg

Scribus document template which can be loaded as a regular document or
used with a New From Template plugin which is included in the cvs
version of Scribus:

Phases I did to create this:

Import an svg:

Scale the svg with properties palette or ctrl + mouse drag

Place it to the top left corner.

Select Item -> Multiple Duplicate:

and the top has been done:

select all the strawberries and choose Item -> group. Copy and paste
Drag the new strawberry row to the bottom of the page:

For a better look rotate the top left and right strawberries

and select Item -> Multiple Duplicate once again for both top left and 
right strawberries:

Now the border has been created:
