Need help creating a drawing tool

I have a Uni project that i am stuck with. I need to make a drawing tool, kind of like paint but after you draw something it needs to be movable. So incase you don’t get what i mean you draw a line and afterwards you can click it and drag it around and rotate it. but i am terrible at actionscript. I have put this of for a while and dont have long to do it.

I have no idea where to start can anyone suggest a site which may help or if you have done anything similar give me some ideas! i got a book out but it sucks.

Thanks
