You could possibly create a new disk image if qemu recognizes the backing files.

Check if qemu detects the backing files:
#qemu-img info path/to/snapshot
If it shows the previous snapshot or full disk image as "backing file", you can 
try to create a new image which inclused changes in snapshots:

1. Create a new image file that has same properties and size as original full 
disk image:
#qemu-img create -f  qcow2 -b  full/disk/image/file new/disk/image

2. The following command should automatically detect backing files and merge 
them into the new image file:
#qemu-img convert -U -p -O qcow2 -c new/disk/image 
new/image/with_no_backing_files

Hope this helps.
