You can create a new sheet by choosing (from the Toolbox window)
File, Sheets and Objects...

You can create new shapes by drawing them in Dia and then saving them by
choosing (from the Image window)
File, Export...
Dia Shape File (.shape)

Then add those shapes to your sheet again using the "Sheets and Objects"
Dialog.

Hope that helps.
