Learning how to use Google Drawing

Using Google Drawing is simple enough, once you open it up from your Google drive you have a few basic functions for you to use in the tool bar at the top left.
Creating an background is simple, what I did is I used the shape tool to make an blue square that covers the whole page.
I then added three different types of arrows to the page. I selected the long arrow and clicked on Arrange, then Order, then Send Backwards. This made the longer arrow go behind the other ones.
With the curved arrow I wanted the back part of it to be behind the Quad arrow while the front remains in front of the Quad arrow. However I couldn't find a way to do this so I just put the curved arrow in front. I even looked for an eraser tool so that I could erase part of the arrow to make it appear like it was behind the other, but still I found nothing. 
Then I made a text box and wrote the word "Arrows" into it, I put the text in the top right corner after I adjusted the size and font.
Finally I just copy and pasted this image from Google and added it in next to the word "Arrows" before saving it.
Over all the program was pretty simple to use and I didn't have very much difficulty figuring it out.
