Hi Emily,

If you like Crayola, you will love RoseArt's version called SuperStuff.
If you can get it in Canada.  It hold up better,
takes detail better, and dries a bit faster. And it is less
expensive here in the US.  I use it for kids when I do a first
time Mask program. We use Aluminum foil and other found objects
and scraps to get the bulk form, and then roll out a 1/8" layer 
of the Super Stuff and overlay it.  Then because it sticks to itself,
they can put in additional details.

Works very well, I much prefer it's texture and body over the
Crayola.

Liz
