If all you can afford is the student grade scholar set, then they will probably do you good enough for colouring cards. I am a professional artist working with coloured pencils, and still occasionally will grab the kids scholars if I am out of a certain colour in the premier line and can find a match, i live 40 minutes from my closest art supply store. They are a harder lead and carry less pigment but certainly still a good quality pencil compared to cheaper brands.
...I don't know where you are in Ontario Peggy, Curry's is back online finally and have some nice gift sets of premier. If you are in the SW ON area go to Bijan's in London, their prismacolours are on sale for December and have the best prices of any store I have been in, in Ontario. The scholar set is usually available at Staples at a good price.
