You should probably house rule it... but you get enormus synergy bonuses from Bluff already. Intimidate, Disguise and Diplomacy, right? Did I leave anything out?
It's especially potent compared to the synergy bonus of, say... Hide? Where you say, "Yay! 5 ranks in Hide. What do I get as my bonus?" and your DM says, "I'd give you a bonus, but I can't see you."

House rule, definately; but....
Not the best of ideas, once the party gets up higher (say, 10th +) the Shadow line becomes rather devastating - Well, let's see... I'm a Gnome Sorceror 10 with a base Charisma of 16; my 4th and 8th stat boost went to Charisma, and I've managed to get a +4 Cloak of Charisma; took Spell Focus and Greater Spell Focus (Illusion); with 5 ranks in bluff (Class skill!) My DC's are at +5 compared to a normal spell for all my illusions. I fake a Fireball with Shadow Evocation. It's an Illusion spell of 5th level - my DC for it is 10+5+5+6=26, both for the will save and the Reflex to avoid it.
