Default Border Help

I can't decide which border to use for this wall quilt. The border will only be 2" wide; I originally chose the paw tracks for the border but not sure now. I have enough of the background green to do the border and am kind of leaning that direction. I plan on using the paw tracks for the backing and have more than enough to do both. I decided to use the blue of the sashing for the binding. Which do you like best?

this may not fit your plans.. but I would do a thin inner border of the solid green with the print for an outer border that is wider.

The paw prints. The difference in print adds more dimension.

Raises paw for the multi-colored paw prints! The background option is nice too.

The green is safe but boring. The print is fun with those little monsters

At first I thought the paw prints were polka dots but I like the paw prints better then the green. Cute top!
