You need a solid Navy blue border. The blue that you have laid out has too much royal blue in it. The yellow that you have laid out is the wrong shade. You need a deeper gold. The proper shade of gold sometimes doesn't play well with the kelly green, unless the kelly green has been shaded.That is why there is usually a bit of white between the green and gold in all of their logos.
If you want two borders then try shamrock then blue. Still use the gold for the binding. It's just an accent on the letters, just like a binding is. If you cannot find the right shade of gold, then scrap it. Use either navy blue or kelly green for the binding.
It is going to be a really nice gift. He will love it.
