I have the hardest time finding teen layouts for inspiration...  Always a boatload of cute baby, toddler and kid pages... just not a lot of teen layouts.  I only just noticed this when I went to work in earnest on my eldest grandson's grad albums last year.  I did find that Tonya Gibbs does some awesome masculine teen layouts (just not a lot).  So if you are looking, check out her blog and you tube (I found her by accident on you tube, but just type her name in and you'll find her).  And I also found a few on Bella Blvds blog.   

So if any of you all have found inspiration for teen layouts, please list em!  I can't believe I am the only one scrapping teen stuff (lol)! 

best to all,

That's all I scrap since I have three teens..well my oldest is 21 now. I also have an 18 and a 14 year old. I use all different collections from various companies. I don't specifically look for teen theme items because there is not much out there. I just kind of make the paper work with the photos.

You are more than welcome to view my gallery, just click on my user name croppinmama to the left of this post then the red wording that says "view my gallery"

I do, since my goddaughter is a teen and most of my cousins are, too.  I know what you mean, though.  I convinced a digi designer I CT for to create a teen back to school kit, because I am tired of all the cutesy kid stuff. LOL!  Also, I teach jr. high/high school, so I have a lot of teen photos.

Here are some of my teen layouts (and there are more in my gallery if you just click on my user name.  The small ones are linked if you want to see them larger.  I think you can get inspiration from all kinds of layouts, though, whether they are for teens, or not.  I tend to scrap my dog, since we don't have kids, and I have used many other types of layouts as inspiration for mine.

my gallery is full of teen girl layouts!!
I don't favor the teeny bopper papers or things...they just don't *match* my girls.................lol

I have a NEW teen (13).  I don't take as many pictures of her as I used to.  And I don't SCRAP as much as I would like to.  But, I don't think it will be any different than when she was little.  I really didn't use too much of of the cutesy type papers back then either.

I do - not great layouts, though. I don't have a lot of photos of my sons, so I scrap what I have. They grew up before digital cameras... lol. I just looked at my gallery and I guess I don't have many as teens. I do them from little boys to men... Here are a few:

I have no Children. But do some of Nephews and Nieces. I recently did a sports LO of my nephew.

Been working on teen layouts for the last 7 years.  Have had to bypass lots of monthly club memberships because of the "little boy" look!  My best advice---use a sketch and tweek it to your needs.

My oldest has just been a teen for a few months, but I'd say look at the overall design and color combos that you like and go from there.

Also, if it's products you want, check the new stuff here--there's always lots of cool/trendy stuff coming in!

Oh, I am so glad NOT to be alone in scrapping teens!!!  I do have some little grandies I enjoy scrapping.  And I want to say I've so enjoyed every one's pages that posted a reply here.  My post was just kind of a random "hey, you don't see much in galleries or on blogs with teen pages" kind of thing.  I think over the years I've done ok tweaking things to suit scrapping my eldest grandson (please feel free to stop by my blog to see my take on teen pages http://cheryl-husmann.blogspot.com/), but I do really love looking at other folks pages (hello pinterest...) .  Very seldom do I scrap lift---usually my brain takes a detour on the way to scrap lifting and my pages end up totally different--and that's ok too!  I just love to look at scrapbook pages...  (great... another addiction.... lol). 

Thanks all for letting me know I am not alone~~~ 
best to all

My kids are both teens, in fact my son is in his last year of teen hood, so I certainly have lots of teen pics.  I do scrap them once in a while, but am still playing catch up from their younger years, so I still am doing a lot of those older ones.  I've been trying to catch up on pics I already had prints of.
