I have gotten a sheet of (12in x 3ft x 1 in) styrofoam from Hobby Lobby ($7), cut it to a 12x12, and pasted a 12x12 linen print that I got from scrapbooksplease.com ($5). I then took ribbon to cover the sides. Everybody was floored when they find out it's not a canvas! You have to watch your adhesives as some eat the sytrofoam and others puddle and distort the photo. I used a spray adhesive for the the photo (this does eat the styrofoam but it still sticks) and I used a special foam glue (found at Hobby Lobby) to glue the ribbon. I found that elmers glue held, but distorted thing too much. HTH!
