The Fall 2009 #36 issue of Scrollsaw Woodworking and Crafts has a wonderful article by James Collins on Personalized Sports Plaques - page 70. I'm going to try it myself one of these days.

theres quite a bit of info on many other aspects of scrolling than simply cutting shapes out. And, as for inlay, theres a lot of great info on this message board about that as well!!! This site has everything you need to guide you forward!

Following up no the articles in issues 34 and 36, check out Jim's Inlay Tutorial at Inlay Tutorial

If you post what you've done and what you try you'll generate a lot of interest, and if you have questions I'm sure you'll get some great help.

As Rob said, follow up on issues #34 and #36. I put my best foot forward in these articles, and I think if you do some of the more simple projects, you might find yet another avenue for scrolling. If you need to do some simple shapes to get yourself more familiar with the technique, I think you'll find that it's not as intimidating as it seems. As Yoda said, "Try not. There is only do". Lol.
