That's fine. As long as you're unambiguous (which is the
intent of the language of blazon) use plain English.

(He pluralized the noun, not "two white lion rampants".
I'm in l{o:}we.) Two beasties facing each other is done
much more in the SCA than in real heraldry. I suggest one,
three, or six, if it's all the same to you -- and all facing
the same direction (dexter, the viewer's left).
Because of the ruling that small held objects do not count
for difference, I don't know offhand whether a held laurel wreath
would count vor the "required laurel wreath" requirement.
Mind you, it's probably registerable. I just prefer something
closer to the period heraldic mainstream.
