  • Still hard to tell what you mean. that looks like you want "a bit of each" some enlargement, some padding… but it's still not really clear to me.

A convenient way would be to:

  1. Select the canvas color using the Gimp "Eyedropper" tool from the background color select box.

    enter image description here

  2. Choose Image > Canvas size... for this dialog:

    enter image description here

In this box enter the desired "Canvas Size", choose "Center" for centering the original content, "resize al layers" if applicable, and fill with "Background Color" as defined above for the following result:

    Not in one go I am afraid, but you can always scale the original image prior to increasing the canvas size (Image > Scale Image).
