Well, the white version is already almost the same color as my white wall. 
In the preview it's slighter lighter than the wall (I did this because paper 
is lighter than my walls). However, later I've found out than the paper, 
when put behind the glass of the framing, is actually slightly darker than 
the walls, due to the tint and shadow of the glass. Note that the glass is 
not colored; the tiny coloring of clear glass is enough to make this 
difference.

If you meant for some other color than white, you can provide a color vector 
for the background and for the wall, and I'll try to make a preview.
