Getting an error on the following code. Keep looking at examples and re-evaluating code but cannot really spot any reason this shouldn't run. Is there anything incorrect such that the 'mRRed' layout cannot be found? (And I'm sure the subsequent)...

ttk.Style() follows the naming convention of T<widget name> for user created styles. This is actually isn't really in the python tkinter docs other than the fact that they use the naming convention in the examples but never explain it.
So in short, if you want to apply the style to a Frame widget you would need to use the suffix .TFrame in your style name.
I also noticed, I misread your question and was under the impression you were using a Label and not a Frame.
I added some Labels to demonstrate the effect but in your example, your code would be:
