How to Isolate Objects from Backgrounds

Yay! I finally learned a new technique for masking backgrounds and isolating objects without a background. Thanks to Corrie Haffley, an expert Photoshop-er and author of several useful articles at SitePoint , for her super-clear and easy tutorial. This is my first attempt. The background was complicated and multi-color, so it wasn't as easy as her example, but I think it came out okay.
