Graveyard Place Card How-To
1. Start with plain paper bags. Fold the gusset downward and cut off the top of the bag, about 2 1/4 inches from the bottom; be careful not to cut through the bottom of the bag.

2. Punch a decorative edge using a fence edge punch.

3. Cut "gravestones" freehand from card stock (or use punched circle as a guide to trace rounded edges), and stamp with names.

4. Unfold bags, fill with candy, and insert gravestones.
