Paper Treat Holders with Window

These are really easy treat holders to make if you want to give out something a little fancier than a plastic bag. 

First, I cut 12x12 pieces of cardstock into three 4x12 pieces.  Next, to mark where I needed to fold the paper, I gently scored the paper with my paper cutter, being careful to must make a light line and not cut too far through.  You could also just mark with a pencil.

Make one line at 4 1/2 inches

Another at 6 inches

Flip it around and make one at the other end at 1 1/2 inches

Fold along the lines


I used a square punch from stampin' up to make the window.
Punch a square on the 4 1/2 inch side

Flip it around and punch another one from the other side
to make a rectangular window

Fill a bag with treats.  I used Wilton treat bags that are 4 inches wide, but you could
also just use a sandwich bag, folding and taping in the sides 

Fold the paper around the bag and staple
(You could also punch holes and tie with a cute ribbon

Add whatever tag or embellishments you like.
Sometimes I add a cut out at the bottom by the window and that looks cute too.
