Iolaus,
I don't know if you if you remember, but reading your suggestion was what led me to my design. As for the back of the card, using that font (8 pt. Abadi MT Condensed, 10 pt. on the front) should be fine for readability; however, maybe a better idea would be to use the Xmarks tartan on the back instead:

What do you think? (I know, the pic makes it look like there's a 'hole' in this post)

Because of the darkness of the tartan? It was done as a "watermark", so the colors were there, but washed out to a light blue. I tried to do it, but I seem to recall having problems making it light enough; his looked good though.

Make it a seperate layer, put it behind the text and turn the transparency down till it looks good.

Overnight Prints
I just got some cards made up by Overnight Prints, http://www.overnightprints.com/ They where recommended by Rocky R. on another site. You can pick from stock backgrounds or use your own, etc. It was reasonably priced and easy to do, If I can figure it out anyone can!
I already have cards for work, so I went for a personal card with my name, phone # , e-mail, etc. but also included websites for some associations as well as X-marks and Kiltday.com .
