Dan !!

Here's your design with the finishing effects, and a couple of closeups for detail. All the grey elements have been given a metallic look, as well as embossing and drop shadows where appropriate. The state map also casts a slight drop shadow. The tartan has been brightened and enriched to have a stronger presence, which helps compensate for its limited exposure. The flags have been brightened as well.
The earlier version is posted at the bottom.
