Its a classic envelope shape with the flap closed and a heart seal on the front, plus a few small floating hearts scattered nearby like it just arrived with something good inside. Two colours, the envelope body and outline in white or a warm cream and the heart seal and the floating hearts in red or a deep pink. Very low density at 315 so the whole thing reads light and open on fabric without any stiffness, thats the right call for a delicate open shape like an envelope where heavy fill would kill the airy look. The outline work on the envelope edges is done in running stitch rather than satin so it stays crisp and thin at every size.
Five spans 3.5 through to 7.5 wide reaching 7.5-in. Heights are 2.17 at the small end and 4.65 at full size so its wider than it is tall which is right for an envelope shape. Stitch counts go from just 3,855 at the smallest all the way up to 11,003 at 7.5 inches, meaning this is genuinely one of the fastest designs to run in the whole collection. I run the large size in about 8 minutes on mid-weight cotton. A few customers have used this on firm stabiliser to make machine embroidered greeting card fronts and last Valentines one of them sent me a photo of a whole batch she made as gifts for her office, the low density held perfectly without distorting the stiff backing.
Pair with fusible mesh under on woven and linen. The low stitch count works fine even on lightweight poplin without a topping layer. Best on white or cream fabric where the envelope outline reads as a clean negative space shape.
What people are using this design for

- Valentine's Day tote bags and gift bagsCanvas tote at 5.5 inches; the open envelope shape reads well at a glance and the floating hearts add a romantic context without spelling it out.
- Fabric greeting card fronts with stiff stabiliserEmbroidered greeting card insert on stiff fusible backing; a customer ran a whole office batch last valentines and said the 315 density held perfectly on the backing.
- Small fabric pouches and coin pursesSmall zippered coin purse front at 3.5 inches; fits the narrow panel without the outline running to the seam edge.
- Valentine themed kitchen linensLinen kitchen towel corner; the low density wont distort the weave, tearaway backs out cleanly after stitching.

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.
