Here are two more examples of colour combinations from the Color Coach. I re-created the acetate anniversary card I made in November as birthday cards, the first uses the Pear Pizzazz Creative Combination colours from the Color Coach...

Stamps: Greenhouse Garden (wood: 121530), Curly Cute (wood: 121500, clear: 120510). Card/Paper: Pear Pizzazz (121693), Whisper White (106549), Medium Window Sheets (114323). Ink: Rich Razzleberry (115658), Tempting Turquoise (100814), Early Espresso (119670), Cotton White StazOn (106960). Accessories: Pear Pizzazz 1/2" Stitched-Poly Ribbon (119265). Tools: Top Note Bigz Die (113463), Sizzix Big Shot (113439), Mini Glue Dots (103683), Stampin' Dimensionals (104430).

The second card uses the Sweet Set colours from the Tempting Turquoise Color Coach card...

Stamps: Greenhouse Garden (wood: 121530), Curly Cute (wood: 121500, clear: 120510). Card/Paper: Tempting Turquoise (108598), Whisper White (106549), Medium Window Sheets (114323). Ink: Rich Razzleberry (115658), Pumpkin Pie (105216), Early Espresso (119670), Cotton White StazOn (106960). Accessories: Marina Mist 5/8" Satin Ribbon (119751), Clear Rhinestone Brad (113144). Tools: Top Note Bigz Die (113463), Sizzix Big Shot (113439), Mini Glue Dots (103683), Stampin' Dimensionals (104430).

For both cards I used the first color as the main colour (background and ribbon embellishment) and paired it with the second colour on the Color Coach card. I only wanted the third colour to be a "splash", so stamped the flower with it and used it as an accent.

If I was left to my own devices, I probably wouldn't have chosen these colour combinations. But, thanks to the Color Coach, I did and I love them. Now I wouldn't be without my Color Coach - it has great colour ideas and gets me out of my comfort-zone.
