Step 1. First we will start by creating new file, so go to file menu and choose new, for purposes of this tutorial I chose size 300 * 100 pixels, with transparent background @ 72dpi.

Step 2. Rename the only layer you have in Background. And fill it with any color.

Step 3. Now pick your Rounded rectangle tool and draw rectangle about 130 * 30 pixels with any color.

Step 4. Now right click on the layer and go Rasterize layer, rename this layer in to Main

Step 5. It's time to add some color and layer styles to our shape. So go to Layers menu and choose Layer styles/ gradient overlay (or double click on layer). Apply these settings.
