Carina do it yourself..... you can go to AC moore and buy really cheap mat board.... cut it with an xacto knife and u can get 11x14 frames from walmart for 5.99
yea it's not too difficult. you can cut the edges with a ruler and exacto blade, and they have cans of spray adhesive that stick shit tight without bubbles or bleeding through (unlike rubber cement). i've done this multiple times for graphic design classes. just practice spraying a piece of paper before you try it on a photo... and don't buy the 3m brand, it's terrible and chunky. i suggest camie 380 screen printer's adhesive (that's what i use).
I really would prefer to do them myself since the gallery takes 50% of the photos (if i sell any) so i\'d like for the pics to cost me the least amount as possible, I just dont\' want to ruin photos...
it should be easy to do. my gf did a whole bunch of prints mounted to foam core for her photography II final. she also did her own matting for frames which should be easy to do.
if my gf can do it so can you. just get the board and spay stuff.
