*Here is the link to the wonderful set of oval-shaped cutting dies that I used for my ornament bases. Please keep in mind that Amazon also sells the 3-inch oval punch, however, you'll have to print your images much smaller to fit the frame. I've never seen any other oval punch larger than the 3-inch. I would not try to hand-cut the oval shapes, because you won't be happy with the results.
