Robin Berry's Watercolor Secrets is a great book for getting started. Pictures, explanations, and step by step instructions for just about every watercolor technique you could imagine.
If you don't want to commit to artist quality materials, thats ok. Student grade paints (get the tube kind) and brushes are good for starting out, and you can always upgrade if you fall in love with watercolor.
But if nothing else, get good paper. Painting on bad paper like trying to paint a cute stencil on a wall full of scrapes, holes, and bumps. You could paint something great, but without a good base it will never look right. Arches 140 pound paper is amazing. It comes in sheets and blocks, so it can fit a range of budgets. Art Supply Warehouse can have some amazing deals if you hunt around.
