>> Oh, now you're giving me ideas. I bet you could replicate snow with pale glitter on white icing. <<
That's among the easiest:
* White glitter on white icing * Clear glitter on white or pale blue icing * Pale blue icing with white snowflakes drawn on it, dusted with clear glitter
>> Hm... We'll have to look for stencils. Or make some. Come to think of it, inverting them so it's glitter around a solid shape could work too, if the icing doesn't get mussed up beyond fixing.<<
Yes. With glitter you'll need stencils with a simple design, rather than the intricate ones for powdered sugar.

>> Or using them as stamps if the glitter will transfer easily, which I expect some might... <<
It's easier with blocking than transferring.
>> Thank you for the ideas. :) <<
Glad I could help.
