Teacup Koala House - Australian Greeting Card

This whimsical ‘Teacup Koala House’ all occasion Aussie animal card has been hand illustrated using fine liner pens, digitally coloured, and printed in Melbourne by The Nonsense Maker. The highly detailed drawing portrays a beige teacup sitting on an olive green saucer with a typical Australian weatherboard home in the centre. The house is playfully coloured with pale blue walls, green fence and pillars, and a vibrant red door. To the right of the house stands an iconic hills hoist washing line with a single red t-shirt hung up to dry. To the right lays a bold red teabag tag that reads "Aussie Love". Most importantly, a cheeky grey koala leans over the rim of the teacup, splashing around in the tea. This hand illustrated greeting card is the perfect Aussie animal card for lovers of quirk!

The Nonsense Maker’s ‘Teacup Koala House’ Aussie animal card 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. All our Australian greeting cards are ethically printed on high quality recycled paper, and our envelopes are 100% recycled.

The Nonsense Maker’s unique Australian greeting card 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 Australian greeting cards and quirky stationery are usually an easy cheerful expression designed to bring a smile to your face.
