GingerK, I taught color classes at the college level. I know the color wheel backwards and forwards and like certain color combinations: analogous colors that blend from one to the next are a favorite and so are complementary colors across from each other (pink and green), but the best combinations are the ones you like. The color wheel is a handy tool, but ultimately it's what you like. Putting swatches on a design board and living with them for a few days is very helpful, too
