January 2026 Main Kit (with Patterned Paper)

This is the heart of the January 2026 collection. The Main Kit with Patterned Paper is packed with coordinated papers that make putting a layout together feel way less stressful. The patterns are designed to work together, so you are not left wondering what goes with what. If you have been looking for monthly scrapbook kits that do the heavy lifting for you in terms of color and design coordination, this is a great place to start. Jana uses these papers as her foundation, and you can see right away how well they set the tone for the whole layout. It is the kind of kit that makes you want to sit down and scrap right away.

January 2026 Main Kit (with Cardstock)

This version of the Main Kit swaps out some of the patterned paper in favor of cardstock, which is perfect if you like a cleaner, more structured look on your pages. Cardstock gives you a solid base for layering and lets your photos and embellishments really pop. This is a great option for scrapbookers who prefer a more classic style or who like to ink and distress their backgrounds. The January 2026 colors carry through beautifully in cardstock form, and having coordinated solids alongside your patterned papers is always a win. If you are deciding between kit options, think about the kind of pages you tend to make and go from there.

January 2026 Main Kit (with 6x8 Paper Pack)

Love working in a smaller format? The Main Kit with 6x8 Paper Pack is made for you. This option gives you all the goodness of the January 2026 collection in a size that works beautifully for pocket-style pages and smaller albums. The 6x8 format is really popular right now because it is quick, manageable, and still lets you document your stories in a meaningful way. If you are someone who wants to scrapbook more but feels overwhelmed by full-size layouts, going smaller is a great strategy. These papers are just as coordinated and thoughtfully curated as the full-size options, just scaled down for a different kind of project.

January 2026 Paper Kit

The January 2026 Paper Kit is a great add-on if you want even more patterned paper options to work with. Sometimes one sheet of a pattern just is not enough when you love it as much as you love the papers in this collection. Having more variety means more flexibility when you are designing your pages and you do not have to worry about running out of your favorite print. This kit pairs perfectly with the main kits and gives you plenty of material for multiple layouts. If you are the type who likes to have options on the table when you create, stocking up on paper is always a smart move for your scrapbook supplies stash.

January 2026 Cardstock Kit

The January 2026 Cardstock Kit gives you a solid set of coordinating cardstock colors that match up with everything else in this month's collection. Cardstock is one of those supplies that you can never really have too much of. It works as a background, as mats for photos, as layers underneath embellishments, and more. Having a kit that is already color-matched takes all the guesswork out of the process. You just grab what you need and know it is going to look good. Whether you are matting a photo or creating a handmade element, this cardstock kit has got you covered for the month of January and then some.

January 2026 Embellishment Kit

Embellishments are what bring a scrapbook page to life, and the January 2026 Embellishment Kit does not disappoint. This kit is packed with the finishing touches that take your layout from flat to fabulous without having to hunt through a dozen different products. Think buttons, clips, charms, and all those little details that make a page feel complete and personal. Jana knows how to use embellishments with intention, and watching how she places them is genuinely helpful for anyone who struggles with that final decorating stage. This kit is curated to coordinate with the rest of the January collection, so everything works together right out of the bag.

January 2026 Pocket Life Kit

The January 2026 Pocket Life Kit is designed for scrapbookers who love the pocket page style of documenting life. This kit gives you everything you need to fill those little pockets with color, meaning, and personality. Pocket scrapbooking is one of the most popular formats right now because it is fast, functional, and still looks great. Whether you use it for a dedicated pocket album or incorporate pocket cards into a traditional layout, this kit gives you a lot to work with. Jana does a great job showing how these kits can be used in a variety of ways, which is part of what makes her process videos so helpful to watch.

January 2026 6x8 Pocket Life Cards and Ephemera Shapes

This set of 6x8 Pocket Life Cards and Ephemera Shapes is a really fun addition to the January collection. The cards are sized perfectly for 6x8 pocket pages and the ephemera shapes give you those loose, layered elements that make a layout feel rich and layered without a ton of extra effort. Ephemera is one of those things that can completely change the vibe of a page, and having shapes that already coordinate with your other supplies makes it so much easier to pull things together. Whether you tuck them into pockets or layer them on a traditional page, these pieces add a lot of visual interest and warmth.

January 2026 Pocket Life Stamp Set

Stamps are such a versatile tool in scrapbooking and the January 2026 Pocket Life Stamp Set gives you a great variety of images and sentiments to work with. Whether you are stamping directly onto your background paper, onto cardstock to cut out, or onto pocket cards to add a personal touch, this set covers a lot of ground. Stamping also allows you to customize your pages in a way that pre-made elements sometimes cannot. If you like adding your own handmade touches to your layouts, a good stamp set is one of the best investments you can make. This one is designed to coordinate with the rest of the January collection so everything flows together.

January 2026 Raffle Tickets Metal Die Set

The January 2026 Raffle Tickets Metal Die Set is one of those fun, unexpected additions that makes a kit feel extra special. A metal die lets you cut custom shapes out of any paper or cardstock you choose, which means you can create consistent, professional-looking elements every single time. The raffle ticket design has a really retro, playful feel that works beautifully for documenting everyday moments, events, or just adding a bit of whimsy to your page. Metal die cutting is a technique that gets a lot of use once you add it to your creative toolkit, and this particular die set pairs perfectly with the overall theme of the January 2026 collection from Hip Kit Club.

January 2026 Color Kit

The January 2026 Color Kit is a seriously exciting add-on for anyone who loves adding color, texture, and a little sparkle to their pages. This kit features Dylusions and Dyamond Dust, which are tools that let you paint, spray, and add shimmer to your layouts in really organic and expressive ways. If you have never tried Dylusions products before, this kit is a great introduction. The Dyamond Dust adds a beautiful sparkly finish that catches the light and gives your pages an extra dimension. Jana has a great eye for how to use these kinds of mixed media supplies without going overboard, so watching her work is a really practical education in color and texture techniques.

Techniques and tips from this video

• Start your layout by pulling papers and products you are drawn to first, then build around them rather than overthinking the plan upfront.
• Use a metal die like the Raffle Tickets die to cut custom shapes that add handmade detail to your page without a lot of extra time.
• Layer pocket cards and ephemera shapes on traditional layouts, not just in pocket pages. They add depth and interest in any format.
• Let your stamps do double duty by stamping onto cardstock and cutting out the images as custom die-cut style elements.
• Color kits like the Dylusions and Dyamond Dust option are great for adding background texture before you place any papers or photos down.
• When working with coordinated monthly scrapbook kits, trust the curation. Everything is designed to go together, so you can grab and place without second-guessing.
