Front and center, imagine a detailed and expressive illustration capturing the whimsical sight of Professor Snape in a bathroom setting, his iconic figure immersed in the unusual task of brushing his teeth. This scene should be drawn in a hand-drawn style, reminiscent of the intricate and quirky elements of Edward Gorey combined with the vivid storytelling quality of Maurice Sendak.

Snape stands at an elegant, antique sink that is distinctly Victorian in style, with porcelain and brass elements, hinting at the Hogwarts ambiance. The sink's surface is cluttered with an array of potions and elixirs, each bottle uniquely shaped and labeled with scrollwork script. The most prominent object is a tube of toothpaste, whimsically labeled "Wickedly Minty Potion," with a small puff of mint leaves and magical sparkles emanating from its cap.

His toothbrush, larger-than-life and slightly exaggerated in size, features bristles that seem to sway as if enchanted, mimicking the exaggerated style of Quentin Blake. Snape’s robes are richly detailed, with delicate, intricate patterns reminiscent of Aubrey Beardsley's work, each fold and curve carefully illustrated.

In the background, the bathroom walls are adorned with old-fashioned wallpaper featuring a subtle potion-bottle pattern, lightly inspired by Beatrix Potter's delicate flora designs. Above the sink, an ornate mirror reflects Snape’s concentrated expression, its frame detailed with swirling vines and tiny bat motifs, nodding to Arthur Rackham's penchant for fantastical nature elements.

On the floor, a Persian-style rug with deep crimson and emerald green colors, reminiscent of N.C. Wyeth's bold palette, adds warmth and richness to the scene. A small, mischievous creature, perhaps a Dobby-like house-elf, peeks around the doorframe, its eyes wide with curiosity, adding a touch of playful detail in a style akin to Norman Rockwell’s narrative scenes.

The overall color palette should blend the moody tones of Maxfield Parrish’s twilight hues with vibrant, magical accents, ensuring the scene feels both magical and humorous. This birthday card cover is not just an image but a tiny world bursting with quirky, delightful detail, ready to enchant the birthday recipient.
