Do they all have to match? And require card mounts?
If so, then your options are to either DIY - could be a nice hobby - or buy new.
I doubt the former will be worth it unless you do plan to go beyond your own home, and make them for sale - would you consider this?
For the more likely latter option, check out your local Fb Marketplace for someone who already does this from home. Or ask on a local page.

That was not spamming I was sharing the reasonable option as an advice on response to grumpy_codger

A new poster mentioning a particular company 3 times in their first 10 posts, seemed like spamming to me. If you disagree feel free to email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com for the Forum Team to decide.

I frame my photography using frames from charity shops, what you find as they price based on the picture, not the construction or the frame. I’m always on the lookout for glass and solid wood and often get both for just a couple of pounds in A2 and A3 sizes, With quality mounting materials and hanging kits , i’ve even managed to pick up non-reflective/gallery glassworth sometimes over £250 for just £5.

some of the real Wood I need to gently sand, fill and then re-spray black or white, or clear varnish, all materials you can get  from Poundland, BM bargains. etc if you are happy to do a minimum bit of work on them, but if they are properly damaged, contain plastic, or not using proper mounting materials I would avoid them.

The other option is to look into foamboard & spray adhesive, you can pick up packs of foam board on the Internet fairly cheap, but it’s not all the best quality I often return them, you can get good stuff from the range but it’s not as cheap as you can pick up online. Spray adhesive can also be good and bad quality. The good stuff for spraying on photographs is branded and quite pricey, I’ve tried a few cheapies and not had much success.

another option is clipboards.
