The ordering of INSTALLED_APPS matters when Django searches for templates to load: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/ref/templates/api/#django.template.loaders.app_directories.Loader
You'll see in Ross Laird's tutorial he includes "yourapp" at the top of INSTALLED_APPS. I suspect you've added your "theme" package to the end of INSTALLED_APPS, in which case the version found in "mezzanine.core" (listed earlier than "theme" in INSTALLED_APPS) would be loaded.
