I feel your pain. This was my first woodworking adventure... Lots of lessons learned. Unfortunately, it looks like they're out of stock.
I can't help you with the Dremel tip (since I'm not that guy) but I'll just note that if you live in the US you can get a scroll saw on Amazon for not much more than a Dremel (or less, depending on which Dremel you're looking at). This is what I used.
If you are trying to cut intricate shapes you probably want to use a coping saw if you are doing it by hand or maybe a jigsaw if you want a power tool.
If you are going to be doing a lot of cutting small shapes going forward you might even want to look at a bandsaw or a scroll saw.
If you are thinking about cutting small items (e.g. crosses) out of wood, look at getting a scroll saw. These are among the best tools for precision cutting small wood objects. The blades are small and can cut very tight curves. And, you can drill a hole in the middle of your workpiece, insert the blade through that hole and cut from the inside. Very handy. Example video!
Hey, guys. I'm gonna be laying down some laminate flooring in my daughter's room, and I would like to have a scroll saw to help me cut the boards. I'm a newbie when it comes to woodworking, and I saw these two:

Do any of you have experience with either of these? Is there something else you would recommend?
Thanks!
Try the WEN 16 Inch Scroll Saw. I got it off of Woot a few months back and it has been great so far.
...and this $100 "like new" 16 inch scroll saw:
