I talked with mom and other members of my family of what I should put inside my family crest. I wanted to put the Notre Dame symbol in it because many of my family members graduated from Notre Dame. The desert represents my family because we like to go hiking and camping. Tennis is a very popular sport in my family and I am number 3 on the JV tennis team. So I thought of putting something to represent tennis. My ancestors are from Alsace, so I thought of putting the Alsace flag in the crest. 

These are some of the ideas and crests I began to sketch

These are some of my first comps. 

I then began to use Adobe Illustrator to create my crest

I decided to go with this one as my black and white final. I feel that it really represents the Marget family. 

I then began to add some color

I went with this one as my final colored version. I used adobe color to see which colors contrast each other and decided to go with the gold and blue. Since I used lines for my project, it was hard to get all the colors inside of it. I, however, think it looks cool like that. Especially the mountain in the bottom right.
