Here's my first go with them (I really need to find my camera lead!) 
So, they arrived yesterday morning. I'm in love and as someone said in the CAS forum's it is relaxing and you could spend hours using them. I love them. But alas, at the moment I don't have watercolour paper and its difficult blending as such, but still so much fun. Its great seeing an image come to life.
So anyways, they arrived yesterday and it wasn't until 6 in the evening that I got to play with them :( but they are fantastic. I might graduate to promarkers in awhile as I am dying to give them a shot too.
But I must stay away from the tempting delights of the CAS shop for at least a month. Oh someone, please take away my 3v card! Please . . .?!

your colouring looks great for a first attempt - did you try thick hammered or linen card yet Lorraine - that hold water well without cost of watercolour paper
No but thank you for the suggestions on alternative paper. I did notice the watercolour paper was a bit on the dear side. Not nice to the budget at all! I shall look for some of the paper you have suggested. Thank you Jess!
love your colours Lorraine and your blog is great ..
Love the blog Lorraine and wow what a fantastic first attempt at watercolouring - you'll be flying it no time. I find it very relaxing.
As for watercolour paper, CAS recommended this one to me & I love using it http://cardznscrapz.com/store/category/14/209/Watercolour-Paper/
