Default Text box inside text box problem

I have a drawing tablet. The idea is to print out an image and place it on the tablet. I will be able to accurately draw on MS paint. The problem is that the drawing area of the tablet is larger than the area I need to replicate. What I need to do is put a textbox or frame on a MS .dotx. I need another smaller textbox or frame squarely inside the outer one. And finally, to be able to inset a picture and resize it to the size of the inner one. That way, I can use this by cutting out the outer paper to the size of the outer frame and place it on the tablet. The image will fit perfectly for me to draw on.

I know this sounds odd, but I need a box within a box that I can insert a jpg into the inner one. I know how to use text wrapping but this is different. I think the inner box would have to be placed relative to the position of the larger box. Maybe a text box is the wrong object to use.

Another problem now. Windows does not give me the dimentions of a JPG. Or paint for that matter.
