Here is a "Book to Look" board I made. It is CASED from one I saw on the Display Boards at Convention. I had some leftover and retired papers, so I decided to use them.
The clipboard is covered with Pacific Point Textured CS. I just used Tombow Mono Multi to adhere the paper.
I covered the tops of three 3x3 mini envelopes with CS. I also covered the flap of the envie with DSP; then, adhered that to the front of the envelope.
I have an old Sizzlit alphabet called "Girls Are Weird" that I used to cut the letters.
I cut 3x3 CS and added a DSP Round Tab punch to the tops.
The cards have free items like ink pads, asst cardstock, sponges, etc. written on them. The idea is that someone books a workshop, then gets to look at a card and receive that item at her workshop.
I had made this cute little owl a while ago and was waiting for the perfect opportunity to use him. I smooshed the chipboard owl into Close to Cocoa craft ink and dipped it in Dazzling Diamonds. The eyes are done in Ballet Blue and the beak is Pumpkin Pie.

Something about this idea is much more appealing to me than the "Book to Look" jars that I have seen. The calendar is a great idea too! I love your little owl...adorable!
