WIN Extra Shopping Money to use at the Spring Penelope Lane Boutique


TWO lucky winners will win extra spending money ($50 each)
 to use this Saturday, March 28th at the
 Spring Penelope Lane boutique
 located at "The Grand" in Long Beach
(4101 E Willow St, Long Beach, CA 90815)!


The winners will be announced Friday Morning! You can do many of the actions once each day.
Also, please make sure to actually do the action. Rafflecopter randomly chooses a winner and it will tell us the action you did to win. For example: "Sally Jones blogged about the boutique." So to be fair, we will check to make sure you actually did that action and if not, we will pick another winner.

Good luck and we thank you all for helping to spread the word about the Penelope Lane Boutique which helps so many of our wonderful vendors (many of them craft for a cause, including helping fund their adoption, help give their children with special needs extra care, etc). So, once again, we so appreciate your help in spreading the word about the Penelope Lane Boutique! 

Hope to see you all THIS Saturday!!!

How to Fake Calligraphy

People ask me all the time how I write calligraphy. It's seriously all just a lie. Making your cursive handwriting look like calligraphy is a lot easier than you might think. You'll only need a piece of paper (I usually use card stock for a little extra thickness) and an artist pen like a micron or prismacolor. You can also use a plain old gel pen or any pen that is kinda inky if you know what I mean by that. Please just don't try it with a ballpoint pen for crying out loud. Ok! Now that we have our supplies, just follow these three simple steps:

1. Write in cursive 
2. Wherever you make a down stroke, add another line there as if you're making that part of the letter a block letter. But try to make it gradual. So the block part will be thinner at the tops and bottoms and thickest in the middle. 
3. Now just color it in! 
You can see examples of steps 1-3 below. 
For more inspiration, check out my Mustard & Grey Instagram (@mustardandgrey) or go to the Mustard & Grey site. Now go ahead and try it! When you're done, post it on Instagram or Facebook and tag us so we can see it! 
xoxo,
Sandy
