Okay so we're starting with this 100x100 base made by

First, I used the Rectangular Marquee Tool and selected a line in my icon, then filled it with white, like this:




Then, with the Elliptical Marquee Tool, I selected their faces, then copied (Ctrl+C) and pasted it (Ctrl+V) then I moved it down to the white strip, so it looks like this:




Then, on the same layer as the little circle we made, I added a layer style, Just in case you don't know how:




And then chose Stroke, I chose white the colour to match our strip and I set it to 3 px. So now it looks like this:




Nearly there!! Now all I did was add a new layer, Selected it all (Ctrl+A) then I went to Edit-Stroke, Again I chose white and set it to 3 px. Make sure it's set to Center.




And we're done!! I hope it was understandable and I'm sure now you'll see how simple it is!! :] ♥ Any questions, feel free to ask!
