Has anyone done any projects to produce cal kings that display both melanism and lavender? Would that be called a lavender blizzard?

Last year I bred my Mendota (hypermelanistic) to a Lavender producing double hets. I will be breeding them next year (2007). So hopefully I will get that 1/16 showing both traits.
