well those were designed by butterfly I believe, so you could ask her.

If I were to guess at the basic anatomy of how she did it, I'd say probably something like this:

1) Make a circle, fill it with a nice gradient, use bevel/emboss to give it a bit of depth
2) on a layer above it, make a rounded rectangle, do the same, but with less of a bevel and maybe a 1px black stroke
3) on a layer beneath the circle, go to town with some nice vector brushes
4) add a render between the circle and the rectangle, ctrl+click on the circle to select its transparency, invert selection and erase any bits of the layer outside the circle. Give this layer a light dropshadow.
5) add text.

Basically the same idea as what I did with the staff tags, only I didn't do any brushes beneath them.

FYI, that's basically the same thing I did for the winner's circle thing (though that was a lazy, rushed effort) here:
