Or maybe hack up a mylar helium balloon? I think I've seen mylar-coated
plastic sheets at an office supply store too. Another option would be to
get some "Laser Foil", which basically allows you to add colored foil of
your choice to laser printer output. (You print what you want on the paper,
then stick the Laser Foil on the page, and run it back through the printer
by printing a blank page. The heat fuses the foil to the toner on the page.
You peel off the rest, and you're left with foil where the toner was.)
