Now your sleigh top is not 100% dry and that's good..I get into my greens..dark green and med. green..if you don't have a dark green then I add just a titch of black...

I get a clean piece of saran wrap..dab it in the 2 green..now what you want is that saran wrap to have lots of textures, don't pack it into a ball , you put the saran into the paint, dab it on a piece of saran or plate to take some off..then barely..barely is the key word think of a tree overlapping the scene..I just use the edge and dab..then I pick up white and barely touch so it looks like snow...remember, this is NOT SOLID, you want to see the sky, then I look at my piece and form just a thin slice of saran, the uttermost edge of your ball and dab a little using same method making it look like pine trees...
