I did just that. I opened Finder, hit cmd-shift-c for Computer, and opened my 
Time Machine drive. I then navigated to the folder holding the backup I wanted 
(they are labeled as the dates on which they were made) and from there found my 
file. Have a look at the folder structure sometime so you know what to expect 
if you ever need to use a backed up file or folder; it's pretty simple and 
logical.
