    I think a rose border would look great. And you could add maybe a flange of the taupe/tan. Good luck, can't wait to see it finished!
    Flange?

    Yeah, you take a one inch strip of fabric, fold it in half and place it between the the top and the border (positioned the same way you would the binding). When you open up the seam there is a quarter inch of fabric showing in a 3-D effect. Can be quite stunning.
