I don't see it being too much of a problem to put it on now unless your base icing is especially moist/thin. I suppose it would depend on the icing type you used. If it's buttercream you should be able to add it no problem I would think.

It's Wilton Vanilla frosting (buttercream recipe but used Vanilla flavoring instead). So Crisco based. It is a thin consistency for frosting the cake...
Are you covering the entire surface of the cake with the crumbs?
If so and if you use a crusting butter cream, you'll want to put them on before the butter cream crusts or else you'll have a difficult time getting them to adhere to the sides of the cake.
ooops we posted about the same time so I didn't see your post.
I would put the crumbs on tonight before that icing crusts.

I haven't iced it yet either! I just wanted to make sure the crumbs would be ok overnight before doing any of it! But I have a lot of other things to get done in the morning so if I can get the cake done now that would be great! So you think it will be ok overnight?

Like cakestyles said, I would put the crumbs on prior to the cake crusting over.
I don't think you have anything to worry about with it soaking the 'sand' as you have brown sugar in there too. Unless you live in a humid area, it should be fine I think.
