Using your picture as a guide, put Perler beads on the design board at the four corners. Then take the picture away and fill up the rectangle with beads. Add a loop at the top. Cover with parchment paper and gently iron to melt the beads together. Take it off the board and do the back side.

Glue the front frame onto the backing piece, clamp with the binder clips and let dry thoroughly. (I let it sit overnight) Once dry, un-clamp and fill the center with UV resin. (You could also use extra thick embossing powder or any thick glaze or varnish.)
