Card colours:
  1. White for business value user stories from our Onsite Customer.
  2. Blue for technical debt and engineering work.
  3. Pink for defects.
  4. Yellow for QA specific engineering work, e.g. setting up test boxes, configuring cruisecontrol, maven2 build and selenium for cross-browser testing (generally we don't get many of these cards because QA is implicit in everything we do).
(The single green card was for one-off special work that we needed a different colour card for. We don't need this colour card anymore.)

The colour stickers on the cards correspond to the columns on the planning board, which are also colour coded. Some of the cards have lots of stickers on them because we develop the user stories by vertically slicing them. Each slice starts 'In Development' (red column), and moves through a 'UI Review' (black column) and a 'QA Review' (blue column) before arriving at a 'Customer Preview (orange column). Here we get valuable feedback from our Customer before returning the card to 'In development' to start the next slice.

Here's our story card template:
