I'm trying to remember where I read that.
if an albino is white and yellow LIKE A BALL PYTHON then you cross an albino with axanthic to create a snow.
if an albino is white and red LIKE A CORN SNAKE then you want to cross an albino with anerythristic to create a snow.
You can also cross an albino to a melanistic, that takes away the black pigment from the melanistic to create a snow. I believe all snow garters were created this way.
