I am confused about how the Spell Resistance awarded by the spell Ward Shield interacts with SR from other sources. I am aware that SR typically does not stack, but the target of the Ward Shield is listed as the shield itself. Does this mean a creature with SR wielding a shield that has had Ward Shield cast upon it benefits from both?
For example, could a level 12 cleric who has casted Spell Resistance on themselves, granting them 24 SR , place a warded shield between themselves and the spell, giving them another 22 shield SR for a total of 46 SR against that spell?

It does not stack, the caster has the best SR of the two.
Similar to how a 7th-level a barbarian with DR 1 and wearing adamantine light armor (DR 1) only uses the DR 1. (I specifically houserule this interaction in my game to stack, since adamantine armor is expensive and I feel that the source are complimentary, but I know I am houseruling it.)
