I've not done a whole lot of Prunus grafting, but what I have done has mostly been done in the spring, with dormant-collected scions.
My biggest problem is keeping the scions dormant long enough for daytime temps to warm up enough and for me to feel comfortable that we are past danger of freezing.
I pretty much just do them like anything else - a simple bark graft, wrapped with Parafilm, followed by wrapping the graft union with a grafting/budding rubber to provide tension and support.
