The Butterflies are machine embroidered on my Bernina 180E. They are a Dakota Collectibles design.
I made 20 blocks for my quilt. Thanks for all the comments.
I haven't decided which fabric to use, I walked away, and plan to come back to it next week, maybe the answer will come to me. I may need to shop for more fabric! LOL

Your blocks are delicate and fragile in appearance, IMHO. That being said, I would use the lighter green for its delicacy and airiness (is that even a word?). I think it will be beautiful whichever way you go.

Have you considered framing each of those lovely blocks with a tiny frame of darker color like a soft black or that green in the border? 1/4 - 1/2" should be more than enough and really make the blocks stand out from the background IMHO. Then look at the background choices again.
