I'm not familiar with snippets, but fom what I managed to figure out is that you need to add something like this in the elements.xc file:

{
  "$delay": 100,
  "timerBig": {
    "time": {

    }
  }
},

and then, in the time subsection you should put a code to change the timer's font, color etc., but I don't know how...

Use this snippet:

{
  "timerBig": {
    "$delay": 100,
    "$interval": 15,
    "time": {
      "dots": {
        "$textFormat": {
          "color": "0xFFFFFF",
          "font": "$TitleFont"
        }
      },
      "secondsTF": {
        "$textFormat": {
          "color": "0xff0000",
          "font": "$TitleFont"
        }
      },
      "minutesTF": {
        "$textFormat": {
          "color": "0xFFFFFF",
          "font": "$TitleFont"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

But in this element not all parts of text can have changed color (only minutes and seconds).

Text, which indicates requirement for win, can`t be changed too.

Sure? Untested, but it should be:

"timerBig": {
  "win": {
    "winText": {
      "$textFormat": { "font": "$FieldFont", "size": 40 }
       }
   }
}
