I am creating a page overlay for a baby scrapbook. However, I am having trouble getting the look of the picture on top where it says "Bundle of Joy". When I do the B-A difference in Booljean join it gives me the look I need but the tail on the y is gone. What do I have to do differently in my layout to get this to look like the top image?

But Boolean joint is not the function to use
First create the layout frame by selection everything but the text
By selecting all the rectangles and the page shape and join
then select that frame and the text and weld

- in the image that you provided, make the biggest box, then add all the other small boxes. JOIN them. Join removes where shapes overlaps. Weld makes one shape and any inner shapes are absorbed into the bigger.
- create your text item, size the text, rotate the letters as needed on a layer of their own, with the boxes layer LOCKED so that you don't move them accidentally. Select all the letters and WELD them. If you use Join you will have inner holes.
- unlock the boxes layer, then select all and WELD, Boolean Join is not required.
