Challenge 3--Round 6--Once Upon a Twilight Time...
Sorry this was late everyone, but I was waiting to see if I would get any round ideas and to hear back for some clarification. Please note, I am extending the deadline this round by 24 hours to compensate for my tardiness and because I would not have been able to post results on time anyhow as I'm traveling for the Thanksgiving weekend. Also, the mood theme bonus ends Thursday, in which I will either open it up for a point free for all or will wait until the next challenge to continue with it.
We're almost two-thirds of the way done now, which means this will be the last round before things get really hard and you are down to one icon submission per post. So take advantage of the variety while you can!
This week's round was thought up by adair7 . Twilight is a very melodramatic, romantic story in its own right--a modern day fairy tale. For round 6, you'll be paying homage to classic fairy tales of the world by putting your own Twilight spin on them. It's pretty straightforward--from the approved list of fairy tales (which is ridiculously long, so don't worry), you may depict three stories using Twilight fanart. The only additional stipulation is that you must include the title of the fairy tale on your icon somewhere.
Some examples:
"Thumbelina"--An Alice icon next to her super tall brothers and sister (since she's so tiny)
"Little Red Riding Hood"--Bella with the Big Bad Wolf Jacob
"Sleeping Beauty"--Bella sleeping as Edward watches over her
You get the gist, hopefully. If not, feel free to ask questions. And of course, have fun and good luck!

6. Permission to use these pieces was given to me on behalf of Twiconathon icon makers by the artists themselves FOR THIS CHALLENGE ONLY.
