One way to make the dividers is this: measure to see what size will fit your lunch tin. You don't want to make them so tall that the tab is mashed by the lid but they should be at least as tall as your cards. Cut out card stock for your dividers and then take the SU! Key Tag Punch, punch out a tag for each divider, fold them in half with the curved edges on the bottom side. Attach one of the curved edges on the front of your piece of cardstock, leaving the straight edge of the tag punch sticking up higher than the card stock. This will be your tab so you want to easily see it over top of the cards. Attach the others, being sure to alternate them so that you can see them all at the same time. Once attached, just stamp, write, or print out a label to attach to the tab. Hope you understand these directions. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions.
Go to Resources, then Projects, then Card Organizer. There is a calendar printout that I used on the front of 12 dividers. Then you can use the tin as a card organizer too. There are lines to write down when birthdays are.

I was able to get 3 dividers out of 1 piece of CS. Plus used scraps to punch out the circles.
Wow, thanks Jami! I was hesitant to do the dividers because it looked sorta complicated, The circles look fantastic and I love that you can use scraps!

The dividers I did are 6 3/4" x 4 1/4". I discovered I could get 3 out of one sheet by placing the paper long ways first and cutting at 6 3/4. Then turn that piece and cut in half at 4 /14". The left over piece is 4 1/4 x 8 1/2 so it just needs to be trimmed down to 6 3/4. I hope that makes sense.
