I need to build 6- 7Foot Tall Nutcrackers snip

No prob. You get a picture you like, then find a BIG Xerox
machine, and make copies. Paste the copies on plywood, cut 'em out, and
paint. No prob.

Or, you could enlarge sections of the picture, a step at a time, so
when you put them together on the plywood, they'd come out the height
you wanted. You'd wind up with quite a few separate pieces that way,
but it works. I've done it for figures 4 feet tall - wound up with 5
separate pages, maybe 6. Just make sure each enlargement is the same
scale. Any small mismatches can be taken care of during the painting.
No prob.

If you want a working version, someone here made one a year or so
back. Pretty neat. But, when I looked in the archives a few weeks ago,
I wasn't able to track down the link. Didn't keep with it too long, so
may have missed it. Anyone have the link?
