Cabinet colour suggestions - too matchy matchy?

We're doing our kitchen. The units are wooden shaker ones. These are the tiles we're having

My initial idea was to do the bottom cabinets in the same grey as the tiles. With the top ones (nor many just one each side and the cooker extractor cover) in the blue and the walls in the creamy colour

Bad idea? Is contrast better? Should all the cabinets be the same colour? Help

Me again. I'd do they grey on the base units, the cream on the wall units and the blue on the walls.

Hello wowfudge fancy seeing you here again :)

I think that's an excellent suggestion.

Should I take a tile into the paint shop and get them to mix the paint do you think? Or just try and get a close ish match off the shelf?

Hi Pink - I would see if you can get a match off the shelf as it were, then try out a match pot. If you don't think it's right then go for the colour matching service. Reason being that it's usually far cheaper to buy standard colours paint.
