Masking out border around icon graphic was created by stkirkland

Hi:

I'm trying to import a graphic (png) of the facebook "like" (thumbs up) icon into FCPX and take out the white border around the hand/thumbs up itself. All I want left to be seen is the icon, not the white all around it. I wanted to make a mask, but it doesn't quite shape tight enough around the icon to take out all the white. I considered a key, but I think if I took out the white around the icon, it would also key out the white *inside* the hand, too.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
Sean K.
