Another useful feature in PowerPoint, which takes a while to figure out, but is amazing when creating bespoke shapes is the Merge Shapes tool. Under Drawing Tools > Format menu, it allows you to "combine" shapes, thereby meaning outlines are applied only to the outline of the new shape, not the individual ones. There's other options too, so check them all out.
