Every month I decorate a wall calendar with Silhouette featured cut file. The calendar greets family and friends when they enter our home through the garage.

For the month of April, I created this “April Showers/May Flowers” themed calendar. I used an array of gorgeous floral designs from Jamie Lane Designs, print-and-cut “April Showers” message with an adorable girl with her umbrella and rain boots. I added a variety of additional greenery, also from Silhouette cut files, to fill in the flowers.

Each calendar day is created with an over-sized rain drop from the cloud file that is positioned just above the girl. I used Ranger Ink/Tim Holtz Picket Fence Distress Ink to shade each rain drop on the calendar days.

Lastly, a print-and-cut Easter card marker marks the date that Easter falls on this month, and birthday markers for family and friend birthdays.
