The bang out of glue you use for this project is important.

Shadow box frames are usually used to frame memorabilia or other objects that are NOT paper/photo thin.
They have a large gap in between the back of the frame and the glass(front) portion.
This makes it ideal for pebble and rock art because pebbles and rocks have thickness to them.
If youre okay with that, then any frame will work.
Another idea is to make your pebble art on canvas.
I havent tried, but I imagine it working quite well too.
