Coping a design of a drink coaster

I have designed a coaster for drinks, how do I duplicate it to make several on the same project. 8 will fir on a sheet of basswood plywood.

Select the shapes and duplicate. (Ctrl+D) then move to place.

Select your whole design and hit Ctrl C. Then move your cursor over a little and hit Ctrl D to copy the design.

The outer box will move, however the words and images are not moving

Maybe group first, can you post your project .lbrn2 file?

Make sure you have selected the whole design before you CTRL+D (makes a copy in exactly the same place) or CTR+C (puts the copy on the clip card for you to Ctrl+V paste as many as you want where your mouse is).

Check your selection by pressing the PREVIEW button (looks like a computer monitor). It is easy to miss a small part of the design, so I like to select all (CTRL+A) and CTRL+G to group into one piece.

How come when I do CTR C and then Crt V, everything that was in the box is gone?

Alternatively use the grid array tool

Group all the elements in the design first
