SVG logo design for a gardener

详细信息

Hi,
I just started a gardening business.
I want my current logo to be upgraded.
See the current logo below (2 files uploaded). I got it from here (source) https://www.shutterstock.com/image-vector/deer-leaf-logo-inspiration-animal-environmental-1573009717
I want the colour scheme to incorporate a gradient with lime green and teal, which can be seen in the picture in this link (these colours without the shadow are perfect) https://www.vectorstock.com/royalty-free-vector/awesome-deer-leaf-logo-design-vector-26675610
and herehttps://www.vectorstock.com/royalty-free-vector/deer-tree-logo-vector-28095753
I would also like the edge of the design to incorporate some Celtic braid pattern, of a similar type as can be seen in this link. https://www.istockphoto.com/vector/round-celtic-band-set-gm511219996-86579095?phrase=celtic+knot+circle
I've been thinking about whether or not using a crest for a logo would be a good idea, to lend an air of sophistication to the brand. Crest VS circle... any input or suggestions would be much appreciated and I may defer to your judgement on that matter.
The logo needs to be SVG, high quality for scalability, web display, and printer-friendly.
It would also be good if the logo were recognisable from afar, visually striking and pleasing to the eye.
If the project goes well, I would be happy to continue collaboration on further design projects including the design of promotional materials, if we are aligned on it.
