Looking through my word Thickers, and decided I needed more generic every day words like pretty, sweet, beautiful, fun, silly, cute, sunset (not generic, really), oh snap!, yay!, omg!, haha!, yum!, woohoo, adorable, random, ouch!, cool dude, rain, sun, hot, cold...I know there are more, but I can’t think of them at the moment since I’m not looking for one in particular.
I do know that I’m actually tired of super generic travel words...travel, adventure, go see do...and specific words I know I’ll never use like...magic, colorful, sparkle, glitter, dream, believe...
How about you? Any specific Thicker words you wish there were more, or less of?

Although I don’t use Thickers, the same issue is true of just about any and all word embellishments that are pre-made. Some of them are so overused. It would be nice to see more variety, and I like the ones you have on your wish list.
This, however, is one of the reasons that I have an electronic cutter and create my own titles and words. If I want something more like Thickers, I cut several, and glue the layers together until I have the desired thickness. I can create any word or phrase that I want, in a font that I love. I can embellish it however I choose. It may not look quite as polished as the pre-made, but a little application of Wink of Stella often removes the home made look.

I could also use a lot less Sparkle. I haven't had any need for magic, dream, or believe in at least a decade. Ditto scrapnnana. I almost always use my Silhouette Cameo to make my own titles. I'll make an offset title or a shadowed title to add some dimension as well as a layered title for thickness. I like your suggestions, KikiPea. I think I will make some of those. I know they will get used. |

i Usually gust use the Thicker alphas to spell out what I want or use cut letters on my Big Shot. Most of the words and phrases are geared toward families and I don’t have kids.

I would love them to do an adulting is hard type one with with words like Nope, bummer, Not today, adulting is hard, but first coffee. I very rarely if ever use words and phrases like dream, believe, laugh or best day ever.

When I need something special, I use my Vagabond and foam sheets. I think you could even use the sheets in an electronic cutter, I’ve never tried it.

When I want premade titles like that I have better luck buying chipboard titles (which I can then color any color I want). I like Creative Embellishments chipboard.
