Well, if it's any help, here's how I'd do it in a generic image editor:
1 - Duplicate the basic layer
2 - Desaturate the top layer
3 - 'Cut holes in' the top layer so you can see the bits you want to be colour
Or:
1 - Duplicate the basic layer
2 - Desaturate the bottom layer
3 - 'Cut out' the bits you want to be colour

This should result in what you want, you may need a little 'feathering' at the edges or the odd touch of blur to make it perfect.

I hope this helps.
