Since I am an engineer and have all of the tools and software to VERY easily survey and draft my property, that is what I did first. It makes it very easy for me to play around with different design ideas all winter long on CAD at work. Here is a picture from my CAD drawing. Since most people don't have access to this stuff I would say use graph paper and make a bunch of copies. You can start with your plat of survey for the overall dimensions of your yard then use a long tape measure to measure out the existing trees/shrubs and structures.

The resolution is much better on CAD that what you are looking at.
