    I would use the bright fuschia. I think that would really make the butterflies pop.

    Ditto for me. That was my first thought on looking at the blocks.

    I would go with the darker pink. I think it would make all the butterfly's and other colors really pop.

    I love those blocks, nice job. I am not good at choosing colors. I love the suggestions you've gotten so far, they are all good. I didn't notice the pink polka dot on each block. I like the idea of using that.

    The colors that make each block pop are the darker pink and the tiny blue dots in the middle of the flowers. So if you want to frame the blocks, use one of those. If you like things to blend, then go with one of the lighter colors.
