Video Tutorial | How to Fake Calligraphy

March 23, 2015 by Francine Clouden

Have you ever wanted to use gorgeous calligraphy on your scrapbook pages, but felt your skills just weren’t up to scratch? Well Mikko at I Try DIY has some help for you. She developed a technique for faking calligraphy! The best part is that it uses your own handwriting, so it’s fake but at the same time authentic. Say what? Check out the video below

The video is based on her written tutorial that you can find here.
