Default Colored core glitter/glimmer paper

Does anyone know of a brand of glitter or glimmer paper that has a colored core. All i can find is white core which means that I have to color the edges when I'm attaching to colored paper. Maybe it's just me but I don't like the white edges.

There is a dedicated line of paper that has colored cores called Core'dinations. They have a glitter line...here is a link to Joanns but I suspect they might have more if you look around

Based on wavejumper's info, I did a Google search and there are apparently 20 colors of the glitter silk. I've never heard of this particular retailer, but they sell individual sheets: https://www.12x12cardstock.shop/collections/glitter-silk-cardstock

I ordered some glitter silk to test how it is. I saw some unfavorable reviews but also some favorable ones so I'm going to see for myself.

I also ordered some adhesive glitter sheets that I can attach to matching cardstock. Fingers crossed it works well.

I got the glitter silk paper today and it's silky and pretty colors but it's white core...bummer 

So my best solution is that I bought adhesive backed glitter vinyl sheets and attached it to solid core cardstock that is close to the glitter color. It's slow going so I don't get wrinkles but it works perfect. Yea!!

oh pffft sorry. that is not supposed to happen. Matching color paper is supposed to be under the glitter but they do admit at the VERY center is white...why I dont know. 

Glitter Silk by <em style="box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(53, 53, 53); font-family: "Work Sans", sans-serif; font-size: 16px; text-align: justify; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">core</em>'dinations® is a collection of 20 colors of brilliant, heavily glittered paper. When manufactured, each sheet has a matching printed color on white paper and then the glitter is applied on top of the color. 

So, for example, if you are working with a sheet of Red Flash, when you sand the glitter away, or tear it, the paper will show a matching red color underneath. This kind of glitter paper also is non-shedding, and folds without cracking. It is 80 lb. weight.
