Unfortunately, you can tell what was copied from a reference and what was designed by you. The face and hands have a higher grade of rendering than the hair/robe/crown. The latter being about 80% of the illustration, its a big deal.
The shadows of the crown spikes all lie in an inconsistent/unrealistic way.
The only places you can see the flying snow pieces is when they are over the figure. If you hadn't mentioned that they were snow, i probably would not have picked up on them in front of the light blue background. I would rethink your color choices for the background. They work okay together, but in no way convey "cold" or "snow". Think of the emotion you're trying to get across.
