Long tall Santa

For this card I've used the sketch for Wild flower Wednesday 23, lengthening it for a DL card:

The base card is a shiny black, covered with DCWV papers. I used one of my favourite Christmas stamps, Santa collage, stamped with versafine onyx black and heat embosssed with black detail. The chipboard candy cane is also DCWV.

Why does the candy cane and the ribbon look red on here when irl it's hot pink?

This is also for:

Magical crafts 19: 'Christmas in July'
Ooh-la-la 58: 'Christmas in July'
Fab n funky 31: 'it's Christmas in July'
Freshly brewed 11: 'Christmas in July'
2 sisters 2: 'Christmas in July'

Stampotique 11: 'Christmas in July'
Cute card Thursday 121: 'get a head start ... Christmas'
Christmas cards all year round July: 'anything goes'
Hanna and friends 53: 'celebrating'
Just add ink 26: 'just add embossing' - heat embossed
KL stampin' n scrappin' 39: 'ribbon'
Friends having fun: 'Christmas in July - DL card' - incorporate your favourite technique: stamping/embossing
Character cafe 25: 'rectangle (DL size card)'
Meljen 16: 'long or tall card'
Crafts and me 8: 'black, pink and white'
Die cut dreams Christmas club 26: 'Santa'
Cas-tastic 11: 'it's simple - I used stamped image, inked edges and embossing
