Curved frame for 4" X 6" photo.

Dig through your scrap bin for a couple pieces of wood. This project won't use much wood and it will only require two cuts on the scroll saw. I don't get much easier than this. 
Simply cut the pieces and get ready to glue it up.
When you glue on the outer ring make sure you maintain a small gap for the photo. The outer will likely close up slightly after it is cut. Glue on the inner ring first and let it set. If needed slightly spread the outer ring being careful not to break it. Glue it on and use clamps to maintain the gap. 

If the photo splays out at the top after it is installed then remove it and gently roll it up for a few seconds. After you reinsert it the splay should be minimized.
