    They both look great, but I really like the ribbon border.

    I like the plain red border. I think the ribbon border draws your eyes away from the unicorn.

    I think the ribbon border does justice to the Unicore.

    I agree. The ribbon border is wonderful, and you did a great job with it, but I think it is a little too busy. The plain border recedes into the background, letting the unicorn (which is beautiful!) shine.

    I like the ribbon border in and of itself but I think it takes away from the unicorn, which is awesome.

    Oh my gosh beauty at its best. Love the unicorn very nicely done. I also love the ribbon border and kept going back to that one. However, I think it competes with the unicorn for attention. My eyes keep traveling and does not rest on the unicorn. I'm not much help with this one. Good luck with your decision. Beautiful work!!!
