Got it done! here is a step by step....
The Project is to make a combo frame & shelf for these....
First up is to build the frame,add some notches...
 
Next a nice sanding, then cut out a backboard...
 
torched in some details,then a dark stain...
 
Then sand it all down so we can see the pine grain, add some more torch highlights...
 
A nice Golden Pecan stain and build a glass retainer into the frame...
 
Now some more stain, then finish & seal it all...
 
Cut some Bamboo flats for inlay, cut some leopard fabric for the backboard...
 
With the Bamboo highlights & finished backboard...
 
Attach the backboard & hooks to hang from...
 
Now the print gets a mat,frame gets UV glass & backboard...
Ready to hang....
