Lightbulb Make a Simple Gemstone

Open a new document with your preferable size (i chose 300x300) with a black background.

Choose the custom shape tool and choose the hexagon amongst all the custom shapes (if it's not present you may need to load all the custom
shapes).

Click the image to open in full size.

Make a new layer. Choose a light gray shade and while holding the Shift key, draw a hexagon.

Double click the new layer to access Blending options.

Choose Bevel and Emboss. Apply all the settings as shown. Note: you
may want to play with size and soften a little, depending on your
wants and your gem size.
