Sydney Suitcase - Australian Postcard

This unique ‘Sydney Suitcase’ Australian postcard has been hand illustrated using fine liner pens, digitally coloured, and printed in Melbourne by The Nonsense Maker. The quirky illustration features an open suitcase which has the iconic Sydney Opera House inside, and a cute kangaroo jumping across the Sydney Harbour Bridge behind it. The bright blues and whites of the illustrations reflect the beach loving lifestyle held dear by many Sydney locals, and the clean white roof of the Opera House.

The Nonsense Maker’s ‘Sydney Suitcase’ Australian postcard is sustainably hand made in Melbourne using all Australian suppliers.

Beginning with a pencil sketch before moving to pen, a method called crosshatching is used to create the depth and the tone you see in the final design. This fine line art is then scanned into a computer and coloured digitally. Every Australian postcard is ethically printed on high quality 350gsm recycled card.

We often have customers let us know they love our Australian postcard but struggle to think of things to write in them, and they are certainly not alone there! Writing a postcard is similar to a greeting card. Check out our blog page for our top tips on what to write.

The Nonsense Maker’s unique Australian postcard designs are imagined from a fun and whimsical world where dreaming meets reality. Sometimes silly and sometimes sad, inspired by etching techniques used by old time illustrators. While The Nonsense Maker’s art prints often have finer details, the souvenir postcards, Australian greeting cards and quirky stationery are usually an easy cheerful expression designed to bring a smile to your face!
