Need some advice on display boards

Hi all!
Have been working a while on a way to display my collections, and finally decided to do this

Ordered some machined on dm wood and this is the result. I am still debating whether paint then black ir not, but I think this greenish color is to much for me. They are going to be framed on a walnut wood with a glass to prevent them from fallin/dust.
As you can see, the main issue is that I made them 2mm bigger in order to be able to remove them easily but it’s a bit too much…

What do you suggest, you think I can leave them like that? As they will be framed with a glass and hang on the wall, I don’t think it will be a big issue, just visual.
Do you have any idea on how to easily “fix” this?
And also, would you paint it black or just leave it like that?

What I am thinking for now is paint it black and frame it like that, have another 4 already made ( base set japanese, Spanish base set, fossil and team rocket)…

Black with glass would look great IMO. What colour will the frame be?

Thank you! Walnut wooden will be the frame

That will definitely look super slick!

@franmotard , Very nice! In case you’re interested, there are some nice locking glass display cases available on Amazon and eBay for displaying cards. I have a few myself and really like them: they are affordable, easy to rotate cards in and out, and come in a variety of colors/finishes.
