Check out Michaels new brand of cardstock called Recollections. They sell it in packs, not by the sheet.

There is a pack of glitter cardstock that has a great hot pink, also a couple of other great colors. It is nice heavy cardstock, too.

I like this paper because the glitter doesn't flake off.

I have seen individual sheets of both these colors at Hobby Lobby. It's kind of pricey if needing to buy in bulk though. It's around $2.00 a sheet which I think is pricey, lol.

DCWV sells glitter stacks.

Hobby Lobby does have their paper on a 50% off sale about once a month, though, so that would bring the price down to $1 per sheet. I have 1 sheet each of several of their colors purchased on sale, but have not used any yet. I do like that the glitter doesn't flake off all over everything.

I buy it then too because it is beautiful paper and high quality. I won't pay $2.00. I remembered late yesterday that JoAnn's has hot pink and sea green glitter paper. They do run 40% sale frequently. I just bought beautiful linen paper for $1.19 a sheet couple of weeks ago.

I noticed Michaels also had glitter wrapping paper in the gift wrap section, but I can't tell you if one of the colors was hot pink.

I bought some at joanns from coredinations. If you go to the website, they have a great pink that is a new line...glitter sticks to the paper! It is called Glitter Silk. When I needed it last year, Joanns had the CoreCouture which is what I used.

good luck!

What about making your own glitter paper? You can run the paper through a xyron and then coat with whatever color glitter you want.

Not sure if you've already found your glitter paper, but I was at Michaels today and they had bright pink glitter wrapping paper for $4.99. It's not acid free, though.

The absolute best glitter paper I've used is from Best Creation. My LSS stocks about a dozen colors and has trouble keeping it in stock during the holidays. It's crazy sparkly with no paper showing through, in a gazillion colors, sealed so that no glitter can come off, and is not bulky. And here's a project I found that uses the pink color, which seems the "hottest" of the half dozen pink shades they have.

I seem to think that A Muse used to have a Barbie pink shimmer cardstock, if you want to go the less sparkly route. I think it made it into the A Muse Studio catalog, but I haven't looked at it recently. And there's always the standard shimmery invitation stock, Stardream. I think it comes in a bright pink too.

I bought glitter paper from Michael's and found it too thick to use with any punch. I was able to use it Die Cut alphabet letters and shapes.

I buy Stardream glimmer paper (one color) 25 sheets at a time on Paper, envelopes, card stock: including recycled envelope, metallic envelopes - PAPER-PAPERS.COM. I started with their sampler pack, it's a pretty good value. They have cardstock and text weight and their prices are reasonable. They also have many companies to choose different colors and textures.

I buy from Michael's and Hobby Lobby too - but haven't seen the Stardream metallics anywhere but online shops. Paper-Papers is MUCH cheaper than buying it by the sheet.
Just an idea.
