Okay I'll add my 2 cents to this. I'd like you to try a small 1" white and a 2" green plain strip around first. Just place it around 1 side and then your ribbon. I think you may need another resting spot in there before you add another "busy round" but I also think your red is the wrong color red. That being said maybe your green instead? Would have to really see it but if it were mine I think that is what I would try and see "If" I liked it.
