Right so this is a different ghost design from the beanie one and the key visual difference is where the focal point sits. Here the balloons are the main event. They fill the top of the design completely, a big tight bouquet of red heart-shaped balloons packed together and tied with a red bow at the base where the stems come together. The lil ghost itself is in the lower half, wide and round, smiling face, two pink blush ovals on the cheeks.
That fluffy boo shape has a grey crosshatch underlay you can kinda see under the surface stitching, which is what gives it that soft dimensional look rather than a flat white block. Black outlines hold the whole thing together. 6 colours total, though the design is dominated by the crimson red and dark burgundy balloon fills, those sections account for most of the 35k stitch count at the full 7.51-inch size. The density runs high at 901, so the balloon cluster is genuinely dense fabric when stitched out.
I get orders for this from a suprising number of halloween crossover shops who keep running it in february and then again in october on different colourways. One shop owner told me last march she swaps the red to orange thread for a halloween version and reuses the same file. Honestly a clever workaround, I hadnt thought of that myself.
Use a cutaway stabiliser here, the balloon section is dense and the ghost body needs support underneath too. Avoid stretchy knits on the bigger sizes because 35k stitches on jersey will pucker without a good mesh cutaway underneath. Stitch on white or cream cotton for best results and youll get clean crisp edges on the balloon hearts. Skip dark navy because the white areas muddy against it. Text me if the file loads funny on your machine and ill figure out whats going on.

About the artist
Reyazul Masud Riham, hand-drawing every design on this site
Every design on Re Embroidery is hand-digitized by one person. Each file gets sketched, color-matched, and stitch-tested on real fabric before it earns a place in the shop. No team. No auto-conversion from images. Just slow, deliberate work, sometimes three or four days per design.
That's the joy I work for.
The hard part is finding my designs re-uploaded and resold elsewhere. So when you buy from Re Embroidery, you're paying one real person for the file you're about to download. That matters.
