Fun with Heraldry!

While browsing EN World today, I discovered this really great Web site of heraldry clipart:
http://www.heraldicclipart.com/catalog/index1.html

Using some of the art I found there (and Fireworks to create transparent PNG files), I started playing with the heraldry tools in the March 2008 Cartographer's Annual.

Here is my Irish mother's family crest - the Aherne family of Kinsale, County Cork:

The birds are herons and I found the image at the site linked above.

Here is a Coat of Arms for a Dungeoneers' Guild:

Again, the portcullis symbol is from the Heraldry Clipart site linked above.
