How to create text cut outs

[Redwood]

I’d like to create some picture frames that include text cut outs. Not engraved text, but where the text is actually part of the frame, similar to the image below. What software (ideally free) would the community recommend? Thank you!

I have done it in sketchup but it took some fiddling.

Thank you! That inventables website is full of great projects and the easel web app looks great.
