Hi Lori17. Welcome to Gimp Forum.
Yes, Gimp can do that quite easily
But Gimp is different from Photoshop, so there will be learning curve. The end result is the same, but the workflow to get there is different.
For that image I would start from scratch. Get an image of a wood panel and another image of a heart shape. Then use the heart image to cut the wood panel to a heart shape. After that, add text, photos, images on layers above the wood. Easy for an experienced Gimp user, but for a first time Gimp user there will be a learning curve.
Not a tutorial, just a quick demo to show what can be done.

Use of cut-outs and drop shadows to create 3D effect.

Small bevel added to edges.
