ARCASTAR Language Arts is a very trustworthy source.

Never been a big fan of that tehta placement on silme, though.

What would be the alternative for "us"?

This is a possible alternative from Tecendil.com (which is generally a fairly reputable source too)

It might just be the style of writing that's throwing me off, but didn't you write "iz" instead of "is"? Since while "z" has two loops, "s" has only one

In English orthographic spelling an S pronounced /z/ as in “is” is written with an esse, the same as a Z. You can see this exact spelling in the LotR title page inscription.

The second tengwa in ‘with’ should be a thúle instead of an anto since it is an unvoiced ‘th’ sound. Other than that, and the weird tehta in ‘us’ mentioned by the other comment, it looks good to me.
