Jenny shares, "When I was assigned to use Thickers I thought well isn't this going to be easy! Who doesn't have a monster stash of Thickers? So I went in search of some inspiration on Pinterest and found a couple of my 'pinned' prints. I used paper and Thickers to create my own frames to hang in my craft room."
Supplies: Charocoal (71077) - Cardstock, Pool (71069) - Cardstock, No Sweat Paper (35378) - Peachy Keen, Big Pine Creek Paper (35369) - Campy Trails, Campy Trails Buttons (85536) - Elements, Peachy Keen Variety Buttons (85541) - Elements, Li'l Tyke (42538) - Remarks, Fellow Fog (53175) - Thickers, Flat Robin's Egg (53018) - Thickers, Flat Black (53017) - Thickers, Lullaby White (43031) - Thickers, Jewelry Box White (43025) - Thickers, Nutmeg Black (43042) - Thickers, Shoe Box White (42882) - Thickers, Black Precision Pen .03 (62311) - Pens & Markers
Shannon says, "I find that I typically like to go in two directions when it comes to using Thickers - choose just one font/color or go with a totally random approach. For this layout I went totally random. It's a great way to use a bunch of left over number Thickers and it didn't matter the number that I used so I was just able to pick what I had left over from 7 - yes 7! - different sets of Thickers! What a great way to spice up a simple page!"
An in-house designer has a fun tutorial for us tomorrow! And come back later today for our weekly giveaway - think mountains of Thickers!

I Have at least a dozen packs of thickers, I'd love some kraft ones, & more black & chesnut in different styles.

love the mixed up thickers! They really spice up my pages. When i look at my layout and go.."Hmm..something is missing!" it is usually the thickers!

Great ideas to use up the left over thickers.
