Please help me choose a kitchen backsplash!

We redid our kitchen almost one year ago, except for the backsplash. We're down to 2 front runners for the kitchen backsplash: chalkboard blend or silver birch blend (see link for pics). Please let me know which you prefer; if you hate both, I'd like to know. Feel free to chime in with other options. I prefer the silver birch blend because it goes off of the granite color and also pulls in the warm tones of the hardwood flooring. My husband prefers the chalkboard blend, but I'm not so into it because a.) the tile is 1/2 x 1/2, and I'm afraid it will appear too busy; 2.) it seems to lock us into our current paint color, or something very similar, something grayish/bluish/greenish, and I might want to change it someday. I'm preferring the silver birch blend because it incorporates the gray tones of the granite without having harsher black tones, as well as the warmth of the hardwood flooring, but it still will let us change the paint color down the line (something warmer) when we want.

Thanks in advance!
