1. Make a shape the size of the brad you want (diamond, square, circle, star, etc)
2. Color the shape with the paint bucket in the color you want the brad to be
3. Select filters, Render, lens flair and add a light to shade the brad. I used brightness 100% and set the flair center at the top center of my shape, and chose lens type of 50-300mm zoom
