You can turn any shape into a masonry element, whether you want to have a fairly neat edge or give a more rustic look with full stones but more randomly placed on the edges. There are 5 different patterns with 3 different colors each. Furthermore, you can choose to have small, medium, or large stones.
One great feature of this script is that you can select different settings for each run, but if you need to create a series of matching elements, you can edit the script to set those preferences and it will run without asking you all those questions.

For a sampler, I edited the script to select the same settings for all the characters in a full alphabet and a set of digits. Each character is about 600 pixels high in PNG format so you can use them in any program.
