Two useful tile map editors availalbe for free are Mappy and Tile Studio. Both have Blitz sample code you can download to get you started.
Note that you will have to make the actual tile graphics in another package like Photoshop (or PaintShop Pro or GIMP or ProMotion etc etc) to use in the map editor.
