Enable me: older boys

[rach3975]

My oldest son just turned 9, and looking through my kits I realized how many of my go-to kits for him are themed (especially sports, superhero, and mischief) or just too young. Can you share some of your favorite non-themed kits for scrapping older boys? They don't have to be "boy kits" per se, but they need to have lots of non-floral elements and masculine colors. Thanks!

Well, I just scrapped a page with Amazed by You by Traci and Julie, and I think it would work great for a 9-year-old! I'll definintely use it to scrap my almost 10-year-old boy. Its a great kit

More masculine kits that are not themed are more difficult to find but a the colors on these have worked well.

I'm starting to lean toward grungier for my kid as he gets bigger. I've been adding lots of paint splats, Jenn's background noise, etc... on the pages. I xtill like the regular type elements (rather than skulls & crossbones, type stuff).

I love Jenn's "Life's Adventure" and she had an older one called "Technotronic" that I just loved!

Here's some others that I think capture both feelings!
