Free Printable Retro Video Game Console Planner Divider

I decided to walk down memory lane for next month’s planner divider: retro video game console planner divider. If you want to add a touch of nostalgia and fun to your planner this little console will help you do just that. 

I’ve now updated all my previous planner dividers to include a blank undated version to every single one of them. You’re welcome to use one of the previous dividers instead if you’re not totally in love with this one.

(This post contains affiliate links. For more information, see my disclosures here.)

I’ve created this calendar divider/die-cut in two versions: a blank undated one that you can use anytime you’d like (to keep notes, decorate, add any month’s calendar, etc) and a dated version (November 2019) that will help you keep a whole view of the month.

Since you were unanimously enthusiastic about the blank PNG version I started including recently I’ll keep on doing that from now on, and will update older dividers progressively too. You can find all the calendar dividers here.

On top of being cute, this calendar divider is also functional. It quickly gives you a whole month’s view, can help you find your page and is even more helpful to have around if you use an undated planner. Nobody likes to get dates mixed up.

It’s also perfect if you use a bullet journal or travel notebook!

Depending on where you punch your holes and how you place your divider in your planner you can get a different look: visible or not when your planner is closed. Plus, you punch holes yourself so this divider can fit in any type of planner!

 Double-sided divider:

The PDF file also includes a mirrored verso of the divider.

That means that you can actually have the mirrored divider on the back of your calendar. Glue both sides together before laminating it and punching holes in it!
You don’t necessarily have to use it if you don’t want your divider to be cute on both sides.

Plus, if you laminate your divider, you can use the verso to write important dates!

You can laminate your calendar and use a Staedtler non permanent Lumocolor pen to write important dates, notes or to-dos on the back of my calendar. What I like about this pen is that it doesn’t smear as a whiteboard pen would. Plus, you can simply erase by swiping it with a wet napkin.

Alternatively, you can also use a Staedtler permanent Lumocolor pen, but you’ll need alcohol to rub off your writings. The pens I have are in size F.

Here’s a low-res preview of the dated calendar divider. A blank undated version is also included in the files. Download this planner divider in high resolution further down this page.

Supplies and instructions:

This “DIY” to create your monthly calendar divider is pretty self-explanatory but basically, you’ll need:

• thick paper like cardstock paper, or else your divider will probably get flimsy
• printable file
• a printer – check out my best tip to print for free or super cheap
• scissors (or cutting machine) – the shapes are really simple so using scissors is probably just as quick!
• hole puncher
• Optional: a laminator (if you want to keep them clean longer, this will also make them a little stronger)

1. Download the PDF file, resize if needed
2. Print it on cardstock paper
3. Cut each shape with your scissors
4. Optional: if you want to add the background to the calendar, glue recto & verso together
5. Laminate them if you want to
6. Enjoy all month long!

If you prefer to use your Silhouette machine, the steps are just slightly different :

1. Download the pdf file
2. Open the pdf in Silhouette software directly if you have the Designer Edition. If you have the basic software, fear not and turn the PDF into a jpeg first, using this website. You can resize in Silhouette if you want.
3. Trace the design
4. Use the Print and cut function through your Silhouette software.
5. Optional: if you want to add the background to the calendar, glue recto & verso together
6. Laminate them if you want to
7. Enjoy!

Note: I’m including a print-ready PDF file (2 pages: dated & blank undated) and an undated PNG version (that you can/should resize) of the design in case you’d like to use this printable for a different month or for a different use (die-cut, divider, digital planner, etc). Simply download the file you need.
