Altered Clipboard Questions

I have a clipboard I would like to alter to use for my to do lists as such as I don't have enough room for a whiteboard or corkboard - does anyone have any examples they could show me for that kind of thing? Also how do you seal it when finished - I do have Mod Podge if that would work
 
I'm kind of thinking along the lines of this wonderful project by Jacinda but as my clipboard is brown not clear I still think I might need to decorate it somehow

 
If you can't print large enough to cover all of the brown clipboard, you can paint it or ink it first, then adhere the printed design over the paint/ink. I would use ModgePodge to adhere the paper to the clipboard and to seal over it. HTHs
 
Jennifer, I got that clear clipboard from a $2 shop.

I covered a brown clipboard a couple of years ago with digital paper, and had to print 2 A4 landscape pages to cover it all. To save ink, just print the border part that extends beyond your laminated A4 page (cover the inner part with a white rectangle - you won't see it underneath the rest anyway). Does that make sense? I used modge podge to adhere it, but didn't do a top coat. The laminated sheet I just clipped on with the main bulldog clip. This way I could change it when I got tired of it.

Here, I found the photo:

The polkadot border was printed and modge podged on, then the brown border and everything inside of that was printed on an A4 sheet and laminated. I used a wee bit of blu tack on the bottom corners to hold it down. The flowers were stuck on with glue dots. A hot glue gun would work too.

great - thanks for the help ladies. I'll keep a look for a clear clipboard but I might just use the one I have
