I agree; "professional belly dancer" is definitely the easiest one to parse for American general public.

Hello Gang,

I Love looking at all of the business cards. It is always amazing to me how there are dancers with so many other fantastic design skills! I'm completely inspired to redo my own card! So, I thought I would share my current card - I was inspired by this fantastic photo.



Have a good one!

Ok here is the one that Michelle JUST DID FOR ME.........IT IS AMAZING....

Everyone's cards are so beautiful! I really need some new pics...

annwyn......ooooh i love the green

great card annwyn. very dramatic and elegant. great colors for you

Annwyn is that your natural eye color or have they been enhanced? They look so bright. Gorgeous!! I'm green eyed as well, so, I'm partial to them.

Thanks guys! Michelle YES that is my eye color, The photographer was freaking out about how cool the pic turend out, I even asked her if she touched them up, she said NO not one bit!

this is what I'm working on right now for my first ever cards....

Here are some I made for my friend:


And here are mine. I am going to redo mine soon. Next time I will spell out belly dancer (even though I thought it was obviously by the picture). Also the print job came out too dark. Sadiya's are much better.

I think adding the word "professional" is...not. It's like being a lady. If you have to point it out...you're probably not.

These are the studio cards

why didnt this thread come up 2 months ago?
after waiting years to finally do my long overdue business card i wrote professional on it ,
i tought i read it on many cards... well at least my first teacher has it on her card and she is a real pro so can comfort me until i get rid of those 400 cards i have left

Wow everyone! I am going to contact Michelle as just this week I've been thinking about new business cards.

I never thought about saying 'professional' wasn't professional either...

...and being a total geek, did you know Dunedin is the old name for Edinburgh?

"Business Card" by definition means you're professional. Have you ever seen a business card for a "Professional Attorney", "Professional Doctor", "Professional Teacher"? As opposed to the business cards for the "Amateur Attorney"?

HAHAHAHA Halima! What a 'duh' moment for me. Of course you are right.

You know what is amazing? How so many of us have talents so many of us can use! Some graphic designers/website builders/travel agents (me)/etc. How many other professions can claim that? I think it's great that we are such a talented bunch.

Also, if you ever need a bodyguard, I'm available. :)
