Take a look at wxpython.org.  Most of wxWindows has been wrapped for
convenient use from Python, and wxPython's creator (Robin Dunn) has also added
a fair number of convenience features that make things even easier.  Don't
forget to check out the wxpython-users mailing list, which tends to be very
helpful.

This should be fairly simple to do with just about any GUI toolkit, as Alan
mentioned.  It's certainly possible with wxPython.
