in that layout, how did she achieve the curvey effect?

thanks

If you're talking about the swirls, those are brushes.
You could use the ones at this site or search for more:

And if its not the swirls you're asking about, please be more detailed about your question. ^_^;

yeah, that's it, thanks!

you can also download the font porcelain from dafont and do that effect yourself if you don't have photoshop.
