The mockup is using the theme colors, but inverted. It is using the theme
background color (Cardboard Grey) for the foreground, and the
text/foreground color (Shade Black) for the darker background areas. So by
deliberately applying the theme colors inverted, not hardcoding them, it
should still follow the theme. Convenience functions might eventually be
useful to consistently invert the theme colors though. I can imagine lots
of other instances where we'll likely be applying colors using this simple
inversion from a visual design standpoint.

Hope this helps,
Andrew
