The themes for Week #04 are as follows, you may submit three different Pandora Hearts icons provided they each fit at least one of the challenges below. The image galleries are available
here for your convenience.
Notice: If you choose other themes than image, you can choose whatever image you want, don't need to use the provided one.
Conceptual
Holidays (Christmas, new year, etc...) OR Eternal
Yes, two themes this week. If you don't want to icon holidays, then Eternal will be your choice :).
If you choose conceptual theme, you must somehow represent this concept in your icon. You are not limited to using the actual word itself; you can use a variation of it, one that is similar in meaning or a related term. You can also use phrases and imagery that reflect the theme.
Image
You must use this image and only the version given, don't try to find another one to substitute instead. You cannot include any additional outside imagery with the exception of textures, stock photography etc. added purely for decoration.

Lyrical
You must use at least three consecutive words from the following lyrics. It is not necessary to maintain punctuation/letter casing and you may substitue alternate characters for words where appropriate (e.g. and with &) and vice versa. You are not allowed to incorporate any external text with the exception of tinytext/brushes that are purely decorative and not legible.
