[ANSTHRLD] Suggestions needed

In Crossrode Keep, we just remove the laurel wreath.  My understanding
has always been that only the seneschal and landed nobles of the
particular branch can wear the full ensign but if you remove the
laurel wreath, it only denotes you as a member.  Was my education
wrong?  If so please tell me so that I can cease telling our newbies
this.

Our shire device is (in plain American English, not heraldic terms) a
big red "X" with a gold castle in the center of the "X" on a white
background, with a green laurel wreath around the border.  I was
thinking about creating a heralds tabord, specifically for our group,
that had the 2 horns crossed in an "X"(like our red "X") with the
castle in the center.  Would this be stepping on rules and such?  I
apologize that though I am not new, I don't know much about this area
of the SCA.
