I guess this qualifies for today's challenge because I never use sparkly shiny paper for my projects. It is usually just a little too bright (dare I say tacky?) for my taste. But I saw some pumpkin embellies at Michaels the other day that had a shiny gold background that showed through the jack-o-lanterns eyes and it looked pretty cool. No way was I going to pay $3.99 for them though so I made my own. It also has glitter which I like but always forget to use. You can't see it very well on this pic but I have a close up and a tutorial on my blog if you are interested (and cheep like me).

Good for you! Those pumpkins are great. Not only did you save some money, you accomplished something terrific!
