@Quayuazue - I had too much of a headache to get on with what I was supposed to be doing, so I found a laurel wreath I used in another design and made this vector symbol for you. Here is the FCW showing you how to use it on shields of more than one colour like the examples you gave (basically, draw two shields on top of one another but reverse the colouring on the top one, add a Color Key, and then place the laurels symbol on that top shield).
And this is the symbol catalogue containing just that one symbol so you can open it in any FCW file you have going.
If you don't want to use it as a color key shape, but want an actual black or white version you can clone and edit copies of it.
This is a free symbol, so don't get all hung up about rights and modifying it. It's literally something that helped me forget the headache ;)

If you want some alternatives, including wreath-forms, as well as types of leaves and other items used in wreath-shaped heraldic structures, there's a selection on the Book of Traceable Heraldic Art site here.
Wikimedia Commons has a lot more images of actual heraldic designs incorporating various wreath types here.
Good luck!

I gave it a try with Pine Trees what do yall thing ?
The term to search for at Google Images is "heraldry laurel". There are many examples. Some are even vectored.

@Quayuazue How very inventive of you! :)
The trees look ok, but it shouldn't take too long to trace the shape if you can't find one you like by googling it
If you find a perfect bitmap example of a reasonable size that is black and white, and then if you remove the white from the image in an image editor and import the resulting transparent png, you can either use that as your symbol, or you can use TRACED on it to create your own vector one.
