Here is an example using both Path Union and Path Combine. When to use one or the other will come with experience as you do your practice Inkscape drawings.

I did everything but when i go to move the logo over the rectangle I can not see the logo. I have attached the file. I tried a difference anyway and both disappeared so I am missing something.

Thanks for your help.
Did my solution work for you?
Thanks,
David
