Thank you i honestly just downloaded photoshop like a hour ago and just started messing around and this is what the finished project was
 
Pretty basic, but I started off basic too :) Hopefully if you work at it, you can seriously improve!!
I'm not sure if you are interested, but if every need tips you are free to message me ;)
and also check out beginners tutorials. they helped me A LOT when I first started.
Good luck, Kitty!
 
The background should be blended more and you should use a brighter color for the text so it sticks out. Good job though.
 
Basic is always better IMO. The icons are rather small, so the more basic the better. :)


 
Thats how i started you'll get better if you were motivated to do this.... just like anything, well im not gunna lecture you but ok for your first time!
 
it's ok for your first try, just keep practicing. Advice I would give is you don't need lots of Fx on things in Photoshop to make them look good- a classic example of this is with Apple products. Simplicity is key to design in some aspects.

Specific feedback would be reduce the bevel on the text and mess around with the settings, see what you get out of the bevel.
 
For your first attempt it's extremely good , I'd suggest reducing the stroke to around 1/2 , and reducing the bevel and contour :)
 
it's just very plain and simple a gradient with text with a few effects on the text dont really like it sorry just look up a couple tutorials everybody starts somewhere xD
