  Happy Anniversary, Snarry!
  I'm so new to this pairing compared to so many of you. I do love these two so much however...it has become an obsession big past time the last couple of years or so. My first Snarry piece of art was for joanwilder/RaeWhit's story Down the Rabbit Hole.
  Title: The (Not) Anniversary Surprise
  Disclaimer: Not mine. Don't want the accounting nightmare.
  I hope we have at least ten more years of Snarry and more!

  The details are exquisite - the buttons,the wave in Harry's hair, the calendar - all are amazingly gorgeous! And your Severus is just wonderful, the angles of his face and that nose!
  Thank you, hon! As usual, you were my wonderful late night cheerleader. I couldn't have done it without you! *hugs*

  I think I've fallen in love all over again :)
  I love the expression of Severus' face, he knows just what Harry is up to and still looks at him with *dare I say* love and resignation. And Harry is concentrating so hard, he doesn't even realise he's being spied on.
  The detail like lilyseyes says is just breath taking.
  I so love your work, but every new piece I fall in love with these two all over again
  You've made me cry, darn it. ;)
  You always are just full of the most wonderful things to say. I just luv you like the dickens. ♥

  This is gorgeous! Well, all your Snarry art is gorgeous. I love the way you use colour in particular.

  Awww, thank you! I really am quite the color addict. Even when I try to tone it down, I usually fail. :p

  Beautiful! I especially love the detail of the calendar.

  The calendar was one of the first things I made. :p I cheated used a shortcut by borrowing the castle I painted for the "Back to Hogwarts" banner.

  Awww! They just look so happy. *hugs them and you*
  Beautiful, darling! Great job. :)

  Oh they both look so marvelous. ♥ A very happy anniversary indeed! Wonderful work.
  Thanks, hon! I was hoping it would be a success...it sure has been a fun "party" today!

  Just soooo beautiful. I love your Harry and Severus and I love how their robes fit them!! Actually, I love the details on the robes. The calendar is great, too. Just lovely.
  I love doing something a bit different with robes (they don't always have to be billowing blobs, do they?) I got to cheat use a shortcut on the calendar, as I used the castle I painted for the "Back to Hogwarts" festival banner.
  Thanks, hon...I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)

  How I love the fact that I can see Harry's & Severus' taut, firm, muscles under their elegant robes! Oh yesss! The bottle Slytherin green color of Harry's robe echoed in the champagne bottle, &, of course, those magnificent eye's of his is very beautiful.
  The icing on their anniversary cake is so smooth it must be fondant. I do wish that I had Harry's wand to write on cakes with—it's just so easy to screw that kind of thing up!
  I love, too, the gloss on Harry's & Severus' very touchable-looking hair, & the reflection on the champagne bottle & glasses.
  The Hogwarts calendar is a great touch, as is Severus' patient expression as he waits for a very focused Harry to turn around. Priceless!
  I love to do something different with robes than make them billowing blobs. What's wrong with some tailoring? (Nothing, we clearly all agree.) ;)
  I thought of fondant on the cake because I watch too much Food Network. The cake challenge shows are my daughter's favorite.

  I'm thrilled you enjoyed it so much and you left me such a wonderful comment! It really made me squeal, hon. Thanks!
  I am in love with the expression on Snape's face. He looks so delightfully fond of Harry and all the effort he's going to when there is just no way he has the subtlety to pull one over on a spy as skilled as Severus. It's adorable that he still tries. Harry even circled the date in red! *glee*
  And how much do I love all the detail work? The castle for the Back to Hogwarts Fest banner as the picture on the calendar made me squee! And I love those well-tailored robes. Though I imagine they will look much better draped over one of those off-screen kitchen chairs. ;D Fabulous!
  I love designing the tailored robes. Who says wizard robes have to always be billowing blobs anyway? ;) Yes, they would look better draped over the back of a chair
  I'm so thrilled you liked it so much and I was happy to have it ready for the boys' anniversary. It was a fabulous party day!

  Okay, firstly, I loooove the shadowing. I'm such a sucker for good shadowing. Hee!
  Similarly, the subtle patterns in both their robes, and the tablecloth. Gorgeous little bits of texture. :D
  I love the way Harry's just concentrating so hard, and Severus looks so indulgent. <3
  Aaand finally, I like the way Harry's robe looks more like an over-robe+shrug sort of thing; my imagination makes what he's wearing under it much more racy. Bwaaaahahaha. :D
