Thank you all so much for your votes! I was really overwhelmed by the responses from facebook, myspace, e-mail and comments! In total I had 54 people respond, and what was so great is everyone had great reasoning behind their vote which is what REALLY helped in determining the winner. It was very confusing determining an actual winner because of these statistics:
52% of voters say that color is better than no color so that the business card itself stands out
48% of voters say that white gives a clean, professional look and draws attention to the logo, giving a better representation of my brand
A huge handful of “white” voters, said that light pink was a close second
So with that in mind…here are the final results:
17% Dark Pink
35% Light Pink
48% White
Now, because the majority was white, I’m going to go with white as the overall winner. HOWEVER, because the majority liked color, I’m looking to getting my business cards mixed, some pink, some dark pink and some white (which was actually a voter’s suggestion that I really liked)! I’ll let you all know how that goes once they’re ordered, but for now … here’s the winning business card, front and back!
Thanks again for everyone’s help!!

Nice 🙂 Good choice V! The white does look good!
The font used for the contact information renders numbers larger than lower-case letters. I think its throwing off the balance of that bottom line a little – making it look heavy on the right.
