"Shanah Tovah" == Happy New Year
"Gmar hatima tova" is a common greeting/blessing for Yom Kippur that has the meaning of "may you be inscribed in the book of life", i.e., may you have a good year; literally is it closer to "may your finished sealing be good", referring to the belief that on Rosh HaShanah G-d writes your name in the book of life and on Yom Kippur the book is sealed for the year, i.e., a final decision is rendered.

What time of the year is L'shana Tova?
"Shana tovah" is not an event, it is a traditional greeting. "Shana" means year, "tova" means good. Since there are no explicit articles, the implied articles are indefinite, giving the translation "a good year". The full short greeting used on Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur is "l'shana tova," which translates as "to a good year." The prefix "l" means to.
