Have you booked your place at the Halloween MegaScrap?

We're counting down to the Halloween MegaScrap on Saturday November 1st at the CityNorth Hotel, County Meath and places are getting booked up fast!


Tickets are now available to purchase online and we'll be announcing more news about the event over the next few weeks, so watch the forum for all the details.

If you haven't heard about the Halloween MegaScrap, it's a one day Scrapbooking & Photography Event for papercrafters and scrapbookers, beginners or advanced. Throughout the day you'll get to shop, win prizes, make new friends and take four classes hosted by two of the leading names in crafting, Donna Downey and Anita Mundt. Plus, you'll be supplied with kits worth over €75.00 and packed with goodies from Maya Road, Making Memories, Prima Marketing, Jenni Bowlin and Bazzill and more.

Tickets cost €180.00 and include kits, lunch and tea/coffee throughout the day.

If you love learning new crafting techniques then you won't be disappointed as you'll get expert tuition on using acrylics, wax pastels, crochet, layering and collage. And if you'd like the hottest tips on how to improve your photography then Anita's one hour photography Workshop is a must.

The MegaScrap takes place in the beautiful 4 Star CityNorth Hotel, off the M1 Dublin/Belfast Motorway, County Meath. Too far? Well, why not treat yourself to a night (or two!) away in one of their gorgeous rooms:


We've got special B&B rates for anyone attending the MegaScrap starting at €80.00 for a single room. Full details of the accommodation rates are also on the forum or by contacting the CityNorth Hotel directly.
