You need to give more information about the alignment. Is the problem printing to size ? If it is, are you printing yourself or using a printing company.
Are the plastic inserts flat or contoured ? Not easy to stretch a flat image in Gimp.
There is a 500 KB file size limit here, you could scale an example down as an attachment or upload a file to something like dropbox and post a link. It usually helps for visualizing the problem.
