Magnify the image and then use the eraser tool...

Tutorial:
1.) Click in the bottom left hand corner where it says 100% and change it to 400% or anything higher than 100% that you want..
2.) Click on the Eraser tool (The pink eraser.) and then on the tool bar, change the size of the eraser to whatever size you want it..
3.) Go to your image and cut out whatever you want and then your done...

make a new layer, use vector, then use magic wand on the vector layer then click back onto the picture layer and it will take out some of it
