    What about Gingerbread on the back and bind in red. It would be reversible then.

    Gingerbread is on the back already. :) But, I like the idea of the red contrasting the back.

    I think a nice green would be a good contrast to bind and frame the piece. Unfortunately, the gingerbread men would get lost in the binding.

    Red, you want the center blocks to stand out.
