create a rectangle for the size you want

then another rectangle for the heart
turn it at an angle of 45 degrees
copy it and mirror the shape 
place both on top of each other at the edges and corners
then fuse them together 
if you now click on node it may be that another node has been created which you can delete
there should be a node at each corner
click on the nodes and change the node type 
adjust the things to get a nice result
sometimes you have to play around with the anchor points and try things out. don't be afraid of making mistakes, that's what the undo function is for :)

finally, create a small circle and place it in the top center with center align
if this cuts through the flowers it doesn't matter and still looks good

there is a function for the corners that i only recently discovered
select the outer frame and click on corner radius on the right
