3. Open your Photoshop program. Then press Ctrl + N on the
keyboard set as follows:

6. Choose eliptical marquee tool at toolbar at left side then make a circle at your icon with hold [shift] at keyboard to keep it circle like this.
7. Choose brush tool at toolbar then at brush option set Master Diameter : 100, Hardness : 0%
8. Now, choose your own color then use brush tool at selection like this
9. Use your imagination until it like a bubble :D and Ctrl+Z if u make any mistake, then Ctrl+D to remove selection. Now u have finished your bubble. Hold Alt at keyboard u will see two cursor black and white then drag n drop bubble to another icon like this. You will see duplicate bubble.
