Push It! Face Molds and Mica and other pretty things

I had the face mold sitting in my drawer for some time now.  I never felt ready for it.  It might have been I was working a lot in bright colors and it just didn't go with the palettes. 

Two nights ago, just for the hell of it, I mixed almost equal portions of Premo gold and Premo black and came up with a wonderful metallic bronze color.  I needed something cool to do with it.  Out came the face mold.  I thought at first I would just make a cabachon and use it in a bead embroidery project.

But, I have no discipline.  I decided to make beads with the left over clay and then I just couldn't let it sit there, or worse yet, put it in a drawer for later use, or even worse, sell it!  I figured I could always make another but you know there is no guarantee it would be as cool.

Once I committed, I was all in.  Here is the result.
