    Give us some concrete examples of what you have and what you are trying to achieve - see the yellow banner at the top of the screen for details of how to attach a workbook to one of your posts.

    Maybe this??

    =IF(Sheet1!A11="","","To supply and fit "&Sheet1!$A$11&" colour "&Sheet1!$A$12&".")

    Both Sheet 1 A11 and 12 are blank in your sheet.
