BorderThickness doesn't work

I'm trying to create style for button in XAML, here is my code:

<Window.Resources>
  <Style x:Key="buttons"
         TargetType="Control">
    <Setter Property="Background">
      <Setter.Value>
        <LinearGradientBrush>
          <GradientStop Color="GoldenRod"
                        Offset="0" />
          <GradientStop Color="Gold"
                        Offset="0.10" />
          <GradientStop Color="White"
                        Offset="0.45" />
          <GradientStop Color="Gold"
                        Offset="0.9" />
          <GradientStop Color="GoldenRod"
                        Offset="1" />

        </LinearGradientBrush>
      </Setter.Value>
    </Setter>
    <Setter Property="FontFamily"
            Value="Consolas" />
    <Setter Property="FontSize"
            Value="15" />
    <Setter Property="FontWeight"
            Value="Bold" />
    <Setter Property="BorderThickness"
            Value="5" />
    <Setter Property="Padding"
            Value="0,0" />

  </Style>
</Window.Resources>

Everything works fine except BorderThickness property - no matter what value I'm putting there, it doesn't change. I'm wondering what is missing in my code.

Checkout the Button control default template here.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms753328%28v=vs.90%29.aspx

If we see BorderThickness property has been set to fixed value 1. Hence no changes are reflected.

You need to create a new ControlTemplate for this purpose.
