Buy a frame from a thrift store. I found this old school one for 2.99 and 1/2 off!
I painted it black.
I did not place the photo behind the glass, but in front. Making everything "pop" out.
I used modge podge and superglue to attach paper, photo, tissue paper, etc.
This photo I took of my sister was the inspiration for this specific gift.

"All thoughts of sorrow fled away and joy was my visitor that day."
