DIY Happy Planner Divider from a Plastic Folder (Free SVG File!)

DIY "Today" Planner Divider for Happy Planner // Planner SVG Templates // Upcycle a school folder into a planner divider to make the week!

It’s no secret that I LOVE my Happy Planner! I started using one years ago on the advice of my then-coworkers and still love to plan out my weeks in it. To mark the week, I made a DIY Happy Planner divider or today marker that makes it easy to always find the current week in my planner. Made from a plastic folder, this is a quick and easy Happy Planner DIY to help you personalize your planner. If you use another type of planner, simply adjust the size of this free SVG template to fit yours. I recently started to play around with more stamps and stencils in my planner, and it’s such a fun way to add variety!

I’ve made other types of Happy Planner dividers before (such as my DIY Happy Planner folders with cardstock). Since it’s back-to-school season, it’s easier than ever to find these plastic folders for less than a dollar each. Make one in every color in case you get bored!

Grab your favorite Happy Planner stickers and get ready for the week with a fun planning sesh!

Step 1: Cut up the folder. You will only need one flat side of the folder.

Step 3: Upload the SVG file of the today marker happy planner divider to the Cricut Design Center. Select all, right click and choose “Weld.” Then continue to “Make It.”

Step 4: Set your machine dial to custom. Search the custom library for “Clear Acetate” under the Plastics section. Cut out the today marker.

Step 5: Lastly, use the Happy Planner punch to punch along the bottom of the divider. You’ll position it in your Happy Planner so that the top of the “T” sticks above the tops of the paper sheets, making it easy to open to the week.

    ☹️ I don’t have Cricut machine. Was hoping for printable template.
    Still… Very cool idea. So creative! If you make printable template, please let me know.

      Hi Melanie! You can print this onto a piece of traditional paper and use that as a cutting template if you do not have a cutting machine.

    Thank you! If you have a cricut air, after you upload the image, you will need to click attach so all the letters gets attached and then it will cut all in one piece. At least, that’s what I had to do on my end.

      Hi Kelly! Yes, that’s correct. I used the weld option to achieve the result.

WELL, I was going to post this photo and talk abou WELL, I was going to post this photo and talk about the new pins in the shop...but they SOLD OUT in 12 hours instead πŸ˜­πŸ™ Andrew and I are so overwhelmed with the love of the #FIPWarriors community. Thank you to anyone who's purchased a pin to support Milo's treatment! We're so close to the end now! One more batch of pins coming up soon 😽
What do you mean I have to take down my Christmas What do you mean I have to take down my Christmas decorations?! 😭 Half our neighbors already took down their Christmas lights, so I guess the only goal is to not be the LAST one with lights up. How long do you keep up your decorations?
Maybe next year I'll finally remember to do a holi Maybe next year I'll finally remember to do a holiday card before it's a week til Christmas, so we can actually send one πŸ€ͺ When we get Christmas cards, I always feel like a little kid getting mail again! Do you send a holiday card??⁠
⁠
(Grab this DIY card holder in the blog archives! πŸ‘‰)
More product is coming soon! πŸŽ‰ I'm honestly SHO More product is coming soon! πŸŽ‰ I'm honestly SHOCKED to see Milo's pins sell out so quickly. We made 50 with the expectation that we wouldn't sell very many, but I just put in an order for more inventory! 😭⁠
⁠
This time we'll be selling black and white cat "FIP Warrior" pins to help raise money for Milo's treatment. Stay tuned - a pre-sale is coming! Pins will ship again in early January. In the meantime, there's plenty of other products available in the shop! (Visit my @etsy via the link in my bio)
NEW LAUNCH! 😸 Thank you all so much for your su NEW LAUNCH! 😸 Thank you all so much for your support of Milo while he goes through FIP treatment! I designed a new enamel pin to help us raise the funds to pay for Milo's treatment...THEN we sold almost all of the pins in just in a few hours! I'm so thankful and in shock of the generosity of our FIP community 😭⁠
⁠
There are a few left and more on the way, so you can SHOP NOW on @etsy and here on IG!! If you want a pin and they are sold out, please tag yourself below! Visit the link in my bio to purchase πŸ›β 
⁠
"FIP Warrior" is the name we give to cats fighting FIP and the humans who help them, bringing awareness to the disease and possible treatments. Our Warrior Milo is almost halfway through his treatment and we couldn't be more grateful to see him getting better! Every purchase from my shop helps us to pay for his expensive treatments and is so, so appreciated πŸ™πŸΌ
🍁 I can't beLEAF it's been a whole month since 🍁 I can't beLEAF it's been a whole month since my last post (oops!) but I had to fit in my one obligatory fall photo before I dive straight into Christmas! If you caught my Stories recently, you may have already seen why I've been so absent...⁠
⁠
Last month, our sweet Milo was diagnosed with a disease called feline infectious peritonitis (FIP). It's very serious and has required our full attention to give him daily injections that should help him recover. The treatment is 84+ days long and has taken a huge emotional toll on us. You can learn more about Milo's FIP story in my profile Highlights!⁠
⁠
Long story short: I've been too emotionally drained from Milo's treatment, my regular work and the crazy world around us to even think about social media 😣 I truly don't know how you fellow creators do it! Hopefully the cheerfulness of Christmastime gives me the urge to create again! (πŸ“Έ cookies made for a project with @spectrumorganic)
