Have a Swell Christmas

Have a Swell Christmas 🌊🎄

Make Christmas a little more swell this year with a festive card that feels properly Australian. Our Have a Swell Christmas greeting card features a cheerful hand-drawn surfboard standing on the beach in a Santa hat, ready to trade snowflakes for sea spray. It is sunny, silly and unmistakably Well Drawn — the perfect way to send a Christmas message without reaching for another generic reindeer or red-nosed something-or-other.

This one is made for the people who think December should involve thongs, sunscreen, salty hair and a suspicious amount of prawns. Whether you are shopping for a surfer, beach lover, coastal family, summer holiday tragic, mate who practically lives in boardies, or anyone who appreciates a very Australian Christmas joke, this card brings the good vibes in by the wave-load. 🌞🏄

The front reads “Have a Swell Christmas”, pairing the classic festive wish with a little surf pun that is simple enough to make Mum smile and groan-worthy enough to satisfy Dad. Inside, the card is completely blank, so you can write something sweet, ridiculous, heartfelt, or all three. Add your own Christmas message, family update, terrible beach pun or a simple “see you by the barbie”. There is plenty of room to make it personal.

Like all Well Drawn cards, this design started life as an original hand drawing in Melbourne. Kristian sketches each illustration with fineliner and colour, keeping the slightly wonky lines, expressive faces and handmade character that make the cards feel like they came from a real person rather than a festive-card factory. The artwork is then printed onto premium 300gsm C grain watercolour paper, which gives the card a lovely textured, tactile finish and makes the original drawing style shine.

Every card comes with a brown kraft envelope, so it is ready to write, seal and send. The finished card is A6 when folded, measuring approximately 14cm high by 10.5cm wide — the sweet spot for a Christmas card that feels special without needing its own parking space under the tree. 🎁

If you are building a Christmas card stash for family, friends, teachers, workmates or the neighbours who keep rescuing your bins, this design is an easy crowd-pleaser. It works especially well for Australian Christmas celebrations, summer Christmases, beachside households and anyone overseas who could use a little dose of sunshine from home.
