Recipe:

Cardstock: Stampin'Up Chocolate Chip
Patterned Papers: Basic Grey new little 6 x 6 pad
Stamp: Penny Black for image and Stampin'up for greeting
Little red gel hearts (falling from the tree): Cloud 9 Designs
Inks and markers: Black ink is Brilliance Graphite Black, pink ink (around edges and for greeting) is Paper Trey new Palette Passion Pink. I also used Spica Atayou glitter pen in red to go over the hearts in the tree. You might not see it in the picture, but it gives a nice subtle shimmer.
Tools: Scallop border was done with SU Scallop Edge punch, the image was cut with Nestabilities straight and scallop ovals). I used Fiskar Corner rounder for the square mat and the corners of the card. The card base is embossed with Sizzix impression plate.
