1. Launch Flash Designer and set movie dimensions 500 x 500 (or any desired).
2. Change frame delay to "Stop".
3. Add new frame, change "Frame 1" to "Master Frame (1)"
4. Go to "Frame 1", select "Master Frame (1)" as the background:

Create a heart

1. Go to "Frame 1"
2. Choose "Frame" > "Insert from Gallery" and select Heart
3. Fill it with radial gradient (center color orange, outer color red), resize it to 52x37 pixels
4. Convert it to sprite ("Edit" > "Convert to Sprite")
5. Rename it to "heart" and check "ActionScript Target" under "Item" > "Placement Properties"
6. Move the sprite outside visible area

   

Create a background

1. Go to "Master Frame (1)"
2. Choose "Frame" > "Insert from Gallery" and select Heart
3. Fill it with vertical gradient, top color light red, bottom color dark red
4. Duplicate, enlarge and position both hearts to create the background

   

Add ActionScript:

Go to "Frame 1", choose "Frame" > "ActionScript" and paste the code:

maxhearts = 100;

var hearts = new Array();

for(i=0;i<maxhearts;i++)
{
	hearts[i] = heart.duplicateMovieClip("heart"+i,100+i); 

	// put it in random place
	hearts[i]._x = Stage.width*Math.random();
	hearts[i]._y = Stage.height*Math.random();
	hearts[i]._xscale = 40+Math.random()*60;
	hearts[i]._yscale = hearts[i]._xscale; 

	hearts[i].yspeed = Math.random()*4+ 1;
	hearts[i].increment = -0.025+Math.random()*0.05;
	hearts[i].onEnterFrame = function() {
		this.radians = this.increment + this.radians;
		this._y = this._y - this.yspeed;
		this._x = Math.sin(this.radians) + this._x;
		if (this._y<-20) {
			this._y = Stage.height;
			this._x = 0-10+Math.random()*Stage.width;
		}
	}
}
