Not All Nuts...

It's DT day over at 

Pretty Paper, Pretty Ribbons. 

How about a nutty layout???

Don't you just love those nutty faces? 

I used Silhouette's print/cut feature for the facial expressions. Considering how small I made the acorns and the amount of detail in their faces, it seemed like the easiest option. Then I used the basic cut feature for everything else. 

Here are the files I used...
