I made my shadow box frame by cutting the paper the size I needed then positioning the nestability die in the center and taping down to hold it in place. I popped up the shelf with dimensionals but the jars are glued with different layers to give dimension. The frame has two layers of dimensionals.

Never mind embossing the frame, I was looking at yours wondering why I hadn't thought of using the fancy shape for the inside, with a plain outside, like yours .
