If you are adding the glitter before cooking, try adding it when the plastic has fully cooked, then inject it.

It could be that the green pumpkin color is overwhelming the blue in the glitter. If the green is really opaque, that could be the issue. Then too the flake could be shedding its color in the plastic and you need to try another glitter source, but I really don't think it the glitter if you've tried adding it both ways unless the glitter is not heat tolerant..

Cut out a few of the "green" flakes and see if they turned green, or if they are blue and the plastic color is changing the appearance.
