Need help with framing?

I want to frame a batik which is about 12" by 15" and I want to mount it on a textured Matt board like black velvety look or just dark paper. I don't think double stick tape would work since humidly would cause it to warp. I want to put another Matt around it and a simple frame. I'm thinking something like wallpaper paste but I don't want it to get moldy. I know there is sticky board for needle work but I would like it to be removable. It's nice but not real valuable but it could be in the future. I am making the frame myself. I want the frayed silk to show in a shallow window box look. It looks sorta like a watercolor on silk. Any ideas? I thought crafty folks would have bosomed help.

    Most sticky boards are repositionable. There are also spray adhesives that are repositionable To keep your mat from bowing you should adhere it to a piece of foam core the same size.
