Description This is purely fantasy, as my country doesn't have an official heraldic society.

I'd definitely use this given the chance to register it, though.

I hope I get the blazon correctly:

Arms: Party per quarter Sable and Argent, a bend Gules charged with three roses Or, between a Crusader Cross Sable and a rampant lion Sable.

The Sable and Argent (black and white) represent the darkness and grief of sin and the light of Christ, covered by his saving blood (bend Gules[red]). The roses Or represent my real life family name.

The Crusader cross Sable represents constant and passionate witness for Christ, and the rampant lion sable represents constant and unflinching courage.

Crest: On a torse Sable and Argent, a phoenix bust displayed erased and flames Gules, over mantling Argent lined Sable. The phoenix represents belief in Christ's resurrection.

Supporters: Two rampant lions Sable, representing constant courage.

Motto: "In mundo pressuram habetis sed confidite ego vici mundum." (In this world, you will have trouble, but take heart; I have overcome the world--John 16:33 [Vulgate])

Constructed using Photoshop CS 2 and brushes from Mr. Tentacleguy: [link]

Stock heraldry images from around the Net.

EDIT: This is the updated version. I changed the division and dropped the eagle after receiving some concrit. The previous helm also looked a bit too much like clipart thanks to its shading, so I got another one from the same brush set.
