 Begin by measuring the width of your treat bag. This treat bag is 5".
 So now I want to cut a 5" x 5" square of black cardstock.

 Fold square in half and cut as shown. Open up and place pieces of double stick tape on just one half.

 Pleat your crepe paper all around, pressing into the tape to form a circle.
Stamp the witch and spider web onto white cardstock. Cut designs out using the coordinating dies. 

 Cut a circle of foiled paper to be larger than the witch. Snip the edges with the scissors to create a fringe. Adhere to the center of the pleated crepe paper. Colored your witch in with your pens. Adhere to the center of the foiled paper and tuck the die cut spider webs around.

 Cut your treat bag down to size and fill with candy. Tape the bag shut.
Open your circle and adhere double stick tape to top and bottom.place the treat bag onto the bottm and then close, pressing firmly.

 Accent with glitter and any Halloween embellishments.
