It's true I do love Teddies and Forever Friends seem a bit neglected nowadays yet whenever I see one it makes me smile and they are so lovely to colour. I played around with some heat embossing for a change too using a swirly stamp. clear embossing powder and then DI Worn Lipstick

I love teddies too but have to admit that I can't remember the last time I actually used one of my FF stamps **hangs head in shame**

Lovely card Marianne - it has a lovely 'warm & cosy' feel to it.
