Where's the chevron vert?

Woops! That was for a different heraldry my bad. How's this: Argent, a rampant hart proper, on a chief vert, three crosses formée, argent.

That looks pretty good. I'm trying to decide if it's better to put the rampant hart before or after describing the chief. I'm thinking it's clearer the way you have it.
Sir Douglas:
Yeah, I'd say having the hart before the chief is more clear. :)
Sir Martyn:
Thanks, Sir Edward for putting mine up as well - I still need to figure out the appropriate heraldic description, however.

You have laid out the blazon very well. :)
If I might suggest:
“Argent, a hart rampant proper, on a chief vert three crosses formée argent”
Take, for example, the very similar blazon of Henry Russell (c. 1455):
“Argent, a lyon rampant gules, on a chief sable three escallops of the first.”
The phrase “of the first” meaning the escallops are argent.
