- If you have been around for a bit, you know that I am VERY into my planners these days. When I get the chance to customize them, I like them even more! I decided to use some cutting boards from the Dollar Tree, a little vinyl, and my Cricut Maker to make custom dividers for my Happy Planner. All the supplies are linked down below!

For anyone asking about what setting to use for the Explore Air 2 I was able to cut through the mats using the deep cut blade and the metallic leather setting. The natural wood veneer setting with less pressure also works but if you let it run all 4 passes it does cut the mat.
Thanks for the tips!
Thanks! I was just wondering this
I know this is an old video but I have been browsing your videos, because you are awesome, and I am so happy you are showing an exact how to do on these. I have been wanting to learn more about my maker and how to use different materials! Plus, looking for a good durable divider!
Aw, thanks so much for cruising the older videos Stephanie! I am glad this one was helpful!
I love this video! Excellent job!
Thank you so much!
These are so pretty!!
Thank you! 😊
This is such a wonderful idea! Just got the recommendation for your video and plan to watch more of yours. Thanks for leading us through each step how you did this project. ❤️
Yay! Welcome to my channel!
Such a fun video to watch!
Thanks Sandra!
I learned so much! I love making my own covers and dividers to give planners to friends and family. Hugs!
What a fun gift!
This is a great tutorial - I am definitely going to personalize some dividers for me planner!!
Nice! Hope it works well for you!
You are one of the most creative people I know!!! This is awesome
Aw, thanks LeAnn! Now I can enjoy the rainbow divider all the time...just put them in my planner last night!
REALLY informative tutorial!! Thank you!!
Glad it was helpful!
You’re explaining so simple and easy. I am definitely going to follow you and watch more of your videos. 😁
Awesome! Thank you!
Now I want a cricket. Dammit!
They come in very handy!
Great video. I’m planning on getting a Cricut very soon. You are a great teacher! Blessings to you.
Aw, thanks for watching Nancy! Enjoy your new Cricut!
What an awesome idea! I love these! I had to save this video for future reference!! ;)
Yes!!! So fun to get to customize your planner!
Love these!!
Thanks! I just put them into my planner last night, and they look so cute!
This is so beautiful!!! Thank you for the detailed tutorial! I need to make some for my planner! Thank you! Hugs and blessings from Miami.
You are so welcome!
I absolutely am so glad I found this video!!! Thank you for sharing and first time watching and new subscriber ❤️
Thanks for subbing! So glad that you are here!
Awesome video, thanks for sharing 😍💕
Thanks!
That's so cool! I've been looking at both Cricut and Silhouette trying to decide which is more suitable. Thanks again for sharing such a great idea!
It is hard to decide between the machines for sure. I love my Cricut machines because they cut so easily through so many materials. But, if I were just focusing on cutting out printables, I would probably stick to Silhouette.
@@ScrappyWife Thank you so much for that direction! I know I want to use it mostly for printables. You made my day!!
Great. I have a silhouette, but I going to try this. TFS!!📒👍🏽
Good luck!
Eureka! An easy way to create rounded corner items!
Yay!!
Really Kool😊💐
Thanks 🤗
Love this! I would have to try to figure out a way for the Cricut to cut the holes. 😂 i just bought my first happy planner- you have inspired me.
Yay! I hope you love it! I am sure there is a way for Cricut to cut the holes...of course, now you have me thinking 🤔
ooooh, we need to get Happy Planner/MAMBI to collaborate with Cricut on this!
So glad i found this video! I’m curious to know - how do you create labels on the divider tabs?
Using a label maker :)
@@ScrappyWife thanks for your response!
⚾️ thank you! This was an interesting video...I will watch again to better see the computer program you used. I will have to find my machine to see if it is a cricut. Maybe I can use 12 x 12 scrapbook pages to make something similar. Thanks again for idea...lol 😊
You are so welcome - go find that machine!
@@ScrappyWife found book for machine. It is a Crichton but really old one that uses cartrides....lol...whoops guess I don't need computer program
Hi I love this!!! I have a Big planner so it would be great to make them for that as full page are hard to find. I was wondering, how do you recommend punching the holes if we don’t have the same hole punch you do? Have you been successful with any other punches? Great project and you did a beautiful job as always!
use a regular hole punch for the rounded part and cut the slit with your scissors. I did it this way for years until I bought a disc punch
And Happy Planner sells a great punch for all sizes! I have the white one, easiest to see. TUL (@ Office Depot) sells a portable disc bound system punch, too.
The Happy Planner punch does not cut through anything that has any sort of thickness to it, so it is not great for plastic dividers. Truthfully, I would recommend looking into the We R Memory Keepers punch. It is the best on the market and fits the disc size really well.
@@ScrappyWife I took your advice, followed your link, and found the punch at *my* Michaels!
Really enjoy your members only videos.I would love to see more about your Faith Planner.
Thank you! I will add some more of that to my recording list!
I really like these! Can they be cut with the Explore Air 2? Blessings
I don’t think that the Explore Air 2 can handle that thickness!
I cut mine with the Explore air 2. The setting I use is 350 and run it through 3 thimes using a deep blade. Been doing this for years with the dollar tree mat and it works fine. Hope this helps
Did you have to run multiple passes through the Maker in order for it to cut each of the plastic mats?
Yes, it does that for you though once you select the material.
Would you use the align tool to distribute the tabs evenly?
That would work. I wasn't super concerned with them being perfect, but that would certainly help!
hello! what type of paper are your dividers? it looks like vellum, but what's the weight? and where can I purchase?
Those are cutting mats and they are linked in the description box!
Hello Elisa, I just watched this video and was wondering, with the cutting mats that you purchased to make the divider, how many dividers were you able to cut out with the one sheet or is it one only per cutting sheet and do you have to use the strong grip cutting mat or can the light grip work?
You do need the strong grip mat for sure. I think I got two dividers from one cutting mat, but now I am not totally sure...it's been a while!
@@ScrappyWife Thank you for your reply back. Much appreciated. I am going to try one out on my Cricut Explore Air 2 and see how it works. If I am unable to get 2 cut on the same cutting mat, I will try doing them by hand instead.
Did you put your vinyl on the shiny side or the matte side of the plastic?
I chose the matte side.
Did you upload as a cut or a print and cut?
These are just cut files, no printing required.
I have a Cricut Explore Air 2 instead of a Cricut Maker - do you think I could make these on that?
I am not sure the Explore Air 2 would cut through that thickness.
I cut mine with the Explore air 2. The setting I use is 350 and run it through 3 times using a deep blade. Been doing this for years with the dollar tree mat and it works fine. Hope this helps
@@barbra429 Hi, I would love to do this. What material would you choose for the dollar tree mat? :)
Thank you
Do you think I an make those with the Explore Air 2?
I think if you have the right blade it could work. Definitely needs a knife blade of some sort, but I am not sure the Explore Air 2 has that option.

Could you cut this with the Joy?
No, the Joy would not be big enough.
I have Cricut explorer 2 can I make the planner divider
I do not think the Explore Air 2 blade is strong enough to cut through the plastic. But, you could always make a paper divider, and then it would work fine.

Hmm? I wonder how you could make these w/out the machine.
You might be able to, but the machine certainly helps make it easier!
Scissors will cut these mats!
