I have the original Silhouette Portrait and want to cut shapes using glitter paper. Do any of you have a recommendation for glitter paper that doesn't shed glitter once it's cut? I've found a few on Amazon and the reviews are pretty good but I'd like to hear what you all have found that works.

It works better to cut the wrong side rather than the glitter side. Also use a less detailed shape vs an intricate cut. Glitter can also dull your blade. And some papers cut better than others!
I don’t use a particular brand, but do look for papers where the glitter is encapsulated vs shedding.

I think AC, Michaels and Joanns (and probably Hobby Lobby) all have this kind and its all about the same in quality.

Thanks for the info! I might have some of the Michael's glitter paper in my stash somewhere if my 7 yr old didn't get a hold of it first. I test it out.
