$18.50

Select Size

Family crest? I know, I know, my last name isn't Arizona but I've lived here my whole life and I consider AZ my forever home, my forever family. The project, create a family crest.

Concept
Remake the Great Seal of the State of Arizona into a family crest combining symbols from the current seal and the AZ state flag. Our current seal's arrangement:

Arizona's 5 Cs
In Arizona's infancy, she benefitted economically from 4 primary sources: Cash Cows, Cash Crops, Cash Money and Cash Climate (eh?). Actually there are/were 5 Cs:

Cattle
Citrus
Climate
Copper
Cotton

The Flag
The flag is divided into two halves with a copper star front and center—'cause copper is king around these parts. The top half is filled with 13 alternating rays of red and yellow (reppin' the 13 OG colonies), and colors borrowed from Spanish flags that once littered the land. The bottom, why not repeat the pattern?
