If you had read the Wikipedia article on GTK, then you would have seen this:

Environments that use GTK+

     GNOME is based on GTK+, meaning that programs native to GNOME use GTK+
     Xfce is based on GTK+
     LXDE (Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment) is based on GTK+
     ROX Desktop is a lightweight desktop, with features from the GUI of 
RISC OS
     GPE Palmtop Environment
     Access Linux Platform (successor of the Palm OS PDA platform)
     Sugar is a desktop environment oriented towards children's 
education, which uses GTK+ and PyGTK
     KDE, though based on Qt, has integration with GTK+-based programs 
and themes (since version 4.2).
